Rock/Metal
Devices Used:
PRS Custom 22
Rocktron HUSH pedal
Snarling Dog WHINE-O Wha-Wha pedal
Sound Description:
I play a PRS Custom 22, very hot lead pickup. I play Classic Rock and Heavy Metal. The above settings lean more toward the Metallica and Ozzy stuff, but work for classic rock with a heavier sound. I bought this amp after I (finally) spilled a beer down the guts of my 1991 5150! I love the 5150, but the Ultra, with the clean channel, gets so many more sounds. The above settings are waht I came up with when trying to recreate my 5150 sound. I'd say the 5150 has a distinct kick butt sound and can't be exactly reproduced. But, the Ultra comes *really* close. If I could only own one I'd take the Ultra. Luckly I'm fortunate enough to have both (I sent the 5150 to Peavey directly in MS, and they fixed it right up).
