Stick an OD in front and finish her up! It's good so far.

Lol, it does have a OD in front, a TS9. Valveking's a very loose amp, so it's hard to get a tight gain from it. Thanks though, I think I'll finish off this song later in the week when my gear is actually here.

I actually found that the TS9 was rubbish for boosting mid gain amps.

you should try something like the Biyang OD8

Really did wonders for my marshall TSL.

i was getting the same amount of tightness you are from the TS9

It's not all that bad, I did notice today, when I put a fresh battery in it, and fresh strings, that when I clicked it on it killed a little bit of the overtones, still bright as a mofo though, just less, clear. I can't find one of those in America. My neighbor has a OD pedal that is just pure awesomeness for like $200, I'll have to get the name from him next time I see him.

The TS9 serves it's purpose for now. Lol, trying to save up for a MIA Strat, if possible a custom mahogany with flame maple top Strat style guitar, would make this Painkiller sound beautiful

how do you have the tone knob set on the ts9?

I have the tone set very very low, just a bit above the no tone, same with the gain, and then I have the level very close to maxed. I'm mainly just using it as a clean boost.

If I give it more tone it becomes too honky sounding.

In this clip I think the battery was just a bit low, and I didn't quite have my impulse cab dialed in like I do now.

The way i always ran it was gain 0 tone about 3 oclock and the level at full.

i found this cut the lows ina  better way and really tightened things up you do have to compensate with the amp though for the added treble
