I have my 350v63 for a few days and I'm looking for some recommended amp settings and effects for some early Beatles songs to play.

Thanks
Paul

It would help to know what amp you're using.

Wonderful, I have the same exact amp and I bought it about two weeks ago. I have gigged with it but I was using a Gibson ES-335. I don't have a 350, but I'll plug my 325, my 360, and my 330 into it and see what settings I come up with.

Paul: I spent a few moments today with my Traynor YCV40 and the settings I recommend for Beatles using my Rickenbackers are 3 o'clock for treble and 9 o'clock for bass and mid-range. I have the presence and reverb at 12 o'clock. give it a whirl and let me know.

Also, one day when I can afford it I am gong to get the cabinet to go with it. A great sounding amp, but to my ears I prefer two twelves to open up the sound.

Ok, finally got the band set back up after a month long hiatus. I played the 360/12 last night through the Traynor with these settings:

Volume about 9:30
Treble about 9:30
Bass about 7:00
Middle about 1:30
Presence about 1:00
Reverb about 11:00

The settings seemed to work out well based on my playing style. The 360/12 has toasters and I was plugged into the normal output jack.
