Epiphone G-400 Electric Guitar

Tense high frequencies.
Not my cup of tea. While sure, it's loud and abrasive, I don't enjoy it's top end. It sounds breathless and overly tight for my taste. I enjoy a warmer, british kind of a tone.
Preferred Settings + Usage:
Best used with the power switch turned off.
My all-time favorite
As a rock/metal player, Laney VH100R has it all: A pleasant-sounding and heavy, but easily controllable distortion which comes in three different channels all suited for different tasks, a reasonably good clean channel and 100 watts of pure rage... OK, it might even be a little too much for a small-time artist such as myself, but at least I can be sure about the fact that it's definitely loud enough for any occasion. All this with the classic Laney tone that I love!
Preferred Settings + Usage:
Presence - 7, Resonance on, Bass - 3, - Middle - 7, Treble - 5, Gain - 10, Drive (Extra gain stage) 7
