I used my CC2X last night at rehearsal. The amp has a LOT of gain even in the low power setting. I think you should be able to get the amp to break on the low power setting by adjusting the interaction between the channel and master to achieve the desired effect.paologregorio wrote:I brought my H2 and vintage AC30s in for service yesterday, so the CC2X will be getting a workout until I get them back later this week; I should be able to provide some updated and newly-informed comments/impressions and answers after my next rehearsal Tuesday night.
I am going to switch out some of the preamp tubes to reduce gain, because the amplikes to feed back, even in the low power setting, more than I want it to, whether I'm playing my 365 WB with overwound Sergio toasters (14K bridge), or my 360/12 C63. This only happens when I use my overdrive pedals, but I use these all the time with my other AC30s and Twins, with far less of an issue, or none, if I have the amp dialed in properly.
Ideally, I probably need a 365 WB without a sound hole, or one that's painted on, a la Gretsch Tenny. haha. Something like that, but that's not going to happen because I'm probably the only one who would buy a rick like that.
