It’s important to listen for the differences after making each adjustment so that you can diagnose the issue and become more knowledgeable about your amp. I recommend making one tweak at a time and working in the order of the list. It’s not necessary to make all the adjustments though. I’ve suggested several fixes for each problem. I’ve listed some common problems you may have encountered on your mission to sound more like Lynyrd Skynyrd on the electric guitar. If you’ve plugged in the settings above for a particular song and the tone doesn’t sound quite right, you should be able to improve it by using the tips in this next section. Some amps have additional controls so make sure you also check out the brand-specific amp controls guide which is relevant to you, in order to fully understand all the settings and so you can get the most from your rig: Conversely, if you are using humbucker pickups then you may need more treble and less bass and mids. If your guitar has single coil pickups then you may need more bass and mids and less treble. It also depends on the guitar you’re using. Marshall amps on the other hand may require less mids and more treble. Fender amps for example, may need more mids and less bass and treble. It is hard to give one-size-fits-all settings for the EQ portion of the amp because all amplifiers sound different. If your amp has a single tone/ EQ control then turn it to around 7 so that it favours the treble instead of the bass frequencies. If the tone is too harsh and crisp, turn it down. In most songs, the guitar sounds bright so I recommend starting with this on 7 to begin with.
