[QUOTE="buriedorburned, post: 149230, member: 1259"] So I've been playing a Randall Kirk Hammett signature amp recently, and the difference between the 2nd and 3rd channels has got me thinking about vintage boosted tones vs modern compressed tones. The 2nd channel has that vintage Marshall tone, that just growls. Where-as the 3rd channel is a tight compressed modern sound, that is better for some modern styles, but that Vintage growl is so much more pleasing tonewise. Has anyone found themselves going more to say a boosted JCM over the multitude of modern high gain amps? I'm interested in how this translates to MTS. Anybody using the more vintage mods boosted, over the many modern high gain mods? [/QUOTE]
