Do you guys ever feel like you're chasing the tone a little too hard, and that it negatively effects your playing?
I feel that a lot of the classic tones we're chasing after were created simply because an artist picked up a guitar, plugged into an amp, and went "That sounds good. Cool" and played on.
I feel like sometimes I can't enjoy my guitar because I'm chasing some phantom sound that doesn't exist instead of just dialing in something that sounds good and just playing.
I feel like the road to tonal happiness is shorter when you stop chasing, pick what you think sounds good, and just enjoy playing.
Also, if anyone can help me get the Woman Tone I'd appreciate it. I do it the way Clapton said. Volumes 10, Treble tone max, Rhythm tone 0 or 1-1.5. Doesn't ever sound right. Marshall dimed. Endlesssly frustrated.
