Which amp for the gun tone
« on: April 25, 2007, 12:35:46 PM »
Does anyone know what amp will get me close to the sounds on the Swagger album by gun (especially tracks 8 & 9). I know it's a bit specific from a less than well know band, sorry.

thanks for the reply,

I honestly don't expect anyone to be able to answe this but I have tried a couple of times to pose a question on here about what amp would be right for me and I useually end up talking a load of shitee. At least this way there is a frame of reference.

Good album, the tone is very Marshall. You wont go wrong with a JCM or DSL to get near the tone.

Cool, I was thinking a DSL 50 head with some really good tubes and a bias and use a maxon 808 for a lead boost.
