My ULTIMATE AMP1 and TONEX Pedal Board! 

still waiting for Thomas to finish the AMP X - this thing should be amazing for tone and features

Very cool! It takes a bit of adjusting to get used to the sound of an FRFR rather than a cab, because it's less directional and more like what your cab mic'd would sound like. I always get '"hearing hangover" when I jump from one to the other, for a few minutes.

@@LucasFowler thank you for your wisdom, I really appreciate it. No looking back now :)

That is how I have it wired, with the internal speaker simulator turned off so that I send my custom IR’s to FOH. 😁👍

Thank you!

I'm very much looking forward to checking out Thomas's latest mad science project! With the cover band we mostly play in the Triad area, Winston/High Point/Greensboro, with random occasional dates in Virginia or down towards Lexington. We did play in Concord at least twice last year too. InterTwyneD doesn't play nearly as much(maybe 3-5 times a year) but we play in Winston, Greensboro, High Point, Charlotte, Raleigh, etc. You can follow our dates for InterTwyneD on the facebook page and the cover band is doing a little bit of a rebranding right now so I'll have more details on that later.

Thank you! I have actually owned a Helix Floor since around 2017 or so. Actually I made a video a couple of years ago where I kind of dialed in "my tone" through the Helix, you can watch that here if you're interested: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4lM4aX05JNs.htmlsi=HDHNhpHi9nqqlc97 I like the Helix a lot, it's a great tool for live and recording, I think I just got sort of taken with the AMP1 a couple years ago when I got it and I've been sort of attached to the sound :P I have a cool Palmer stereo power amp I can use to power the Helix in stereo and it's a lot of fun. My only thing with something digital like that is when it's put side by side with a "real" amp, it always seems lacking. If you're the only guitar player, no problem. If everyone is using digital stuff, also no problem. But if one guy is using a 100 watt Boogie and you're digital, it matters :P

It’s my primitive attempt at AMPX until they’re available!

Yes, you can find all of these tone captures and more for free on my page :) www.tone.net/tonex/users/finetuning

@@LucasFowler Thanks Lucas! Tonex and SD Power Stage are on the way to my place.

Thank you! The bridge pickup is a "custom" version of my Planet Tone signature Statera pickup. It has an A5 mag rather than the stock A4, screw pole pieces in both bobbins and an "H-Bomb" style cover. It's also turned backwards so the "hotter" coil is closer to the middle single coil :) I suspect you could special order that from Planet Tone if you emailed him.

I find that I like them both for different things. The louder I need to play, the more likely I am to use the AMP1's preamps because it holds up better. The AMP1 power amp in itself is very special :)

By using the “4 cable method” with my MS3, I’m able to isolate just the preamp of the AMP1 and the ToneX in separate, discrete loops. Then I just program which one I want to send to the power section.

I wouldn’t recommend running it through the clean channel, rather I would run it into the FX return or power amp input. The ToneX can model pedals, which would be ok in the front, but I wouldn’t recommend running amp models into another amps preamp. No rules though, if it sounds good to you do it 😁

@@LucasFowler thanx so much for wuick response. Makes total sense. Didn't give preamp section on amp, any consideration .😎👍👍

The closest thing I’ve found to the punch and able to get the same EQ profile is the Palmer Macht402 power amp, but that doesn’t do the nanotube sag thing. I’ll end up getting another AMP1 I’m sure 😂
