Hi gang. Looking to achieve that compressed, 80’s distortion sound that I’ve always thought of as ‘boxy’ but Andy Martin probably best described it as ‘hollow’...
I am usually a light gain dude and don’t play a ton of hair rock (hence my strat/Two Rock setup) however we’ve started playing more 80’s stuff in a covers band I am in and I’ve always secretly gassed after that tone as a guilty pleasure...
Think something similar to Daryl Stuermer’s outro solo on this (from 4.17) and sorry in advance for any non-Phil Collins fans
I already have a JHS Angry Charlie that does the JCM great but it’s not quite as ‘hollow’/compressed as I am looking for. Wondering if something like a Mad Prof. Mighty Red might get me closer?
Any thoughts appreciated!!!
