My final final amp FUCHS ODS 30

[John Edmonds]

Tried Ceriatone OTS and Two rock Jet both excellent but this little baby does it for me. Small pubs to medium venue, same tone, no pedals.

Thanks Andy

[Structo]

Nice!

Are you and the drummer brothers?

[John Edmonds]

ha ha. No just good friends

[dogears]

I was just gonna comment on the replicant drummer!!

Nice stuff. Good pocket!

[BobW]

You dropped down 1/2 way into the tune, did you adjust a pedal or are you running straight into the amp? nice chops.

[John Edmonds]

Straight into the amp.
I dropped my plectrum at the beginning and someone in the audience run up and gave me theirs.
I later bent down & retrieved my plectrum.
It's amazing how the tone changes when I get my own plectrum back
No pedals ...

[BobW]

FWIW, You may find by permanently losing the plectrum will eliminate the need to bend down and pick it up, it also can improve your tone. I stopped using a pick years ago and glad I did. ymmv.

[John Edmonds]

Yes, I do play without a pick, depends on the songs or where I am in the solo. Start with fingers & change to pick at the end during slow blues slow etc.

[FUCHSAUDIO]

Cute bass player....

[John Edmonds]

yes, she's lovely

Living in Camp San Diego, I've only heard one Fuchs live. With my own Dumbling experiences, I was surprised at how good a strat amp it was. That's not a real high gain tone on the video. What's your setting? OD or clean w/w/out boost? (Hazarding a guess, it sounds like straight clean to me.)

John,

Sounds great, congratulations.

BTW, did you buy it from a UK retailer? (the amp I mean, not the bass player! )

Cheers,

Paul.

Hi,
Yes, not the RF tone but a fairly clean fat tone.
I was using straight for chops, o/d for solo with eq bypass.

Controls were probably about G=4 T=5 M=5 B=5 o/d in = 4 o/d out =4 V =4 P = 5 R = 3

Check out Dr Ika at 4:20 on this vid to hear more RF tones using the Deep switch and humbucking p/ups.
