I have had pedals..lots of pedals and an old zoom player which I did not like,

I am still searching for that tone ..I have a gibson les paul with humbuckers and a 80watt marshall valvestate..and use only a bosh eq pedal now..problem is my tone seems flat,

I can best discribe my desired tone as, loud without being actually loud, distorted but clear..even though this doesn't seem to make much sense it's what i'm after!

I was watching speed kills dvd by micheal angelo I like his tone,even though my budget isn't as good as his , there must be something missing?

I have been thinking of getting another effects processor with a built in drum machine and different amp tones and all the effects..can anyone recomend a really good one? I have been lookin at the digitech one on the net..any suggestions appreciated

;D

I'm not an expert on amps, but is your amp a valve amp or solid state? Maybe your due for an amp service, valves in particular need replacing so often ..drop it in to a specialist audio tech..not your local hi fi shop, but someone who really knows amps..maybe it just needs the tweek of a pot to get the amp sounding right..cause youve tried all the pedals....

also..there's a mob in Sydney who sell direct to the public, valves and all sorts of your dick smith stuff, but at really low prices.anywhere, interstate, Wes Electronics are their name.we buy stuff thru work from them, and the service is damn quick.[/urlhttp://www.wescomponents.com/General.html]

Hi Buck
thankyou for your help
I am to believe the valve states are a combo of both valve and solid state, I think you are right..I should get it checked out and have been painfully ignoring this issue for some time! there is a business 'Rytron'close to me actually that deals espec .... so I really have ran out of excuses now!
I still believe that the tone I am after is produced by an effect but. A lot of Pro shredders use it, I have heard the ts9 is used by heaps of pro players to acheive this type of tone.. apparently they use 2..I tried one and thought it was useless.
