Adjust The Settings Of Jazz Tube Amps

By Gwen Lowe


Jazz music is a very popular genre that many have enjoyed playing and listening to at the same time. This genre would make use of the smooth guitar sounds that this genre is actually very famous for. Now if one would want to play this type of music, then it is very important that he would make use of some really good jazz tube amps so that he could actually play this kind of music.

Now when one would want to play jazz music, he has to make sure that he has an amplifier that has tubes that can let out a sound specifically for this. So before he would play anything, he should first research on the amplifiers that are good for this type of music. Once he has bought it, then he can make some adjustments to get a nice tone.

Now the settings are extremely important simply because the settings are what would make the sounds. So the key here is to make sure that everything has the right settings so that it is possible to have the right type of tone. Now one of the important things that he should take note of would be distortions.

Unlike rock and roll or metal wherein both use a lot of distorted sounds, jazz or blues do not make use of such sounds. So the key to handling this is to make sure that there is only a little bit of distortion that is present. What one would want is to make sure that he has the smooth tone.

Although it is a general rule that guitar players in this genre would not use distortion, there are quite a bit of bands who would actually use it. The difference here is that they know how to set it at a minimal level. So basically, their distortion sound is very subtle and only can be heard a little bit.

Now in order to give it a really good tone, then one has to also think about the other settings as well. Now one noteworthy thing to notice about the settings of blues music would be that the bass level would be much higher than the treble. The reason behind this is simply because if the treble is at a high level, the sound is painful to the ears.

Now if one does not know how to adjust the bass and the treble, then he may follow this standard setting. Basically, he can set the bass level at level seven or higher. After that, he should set the treble to a level of four or five but should never put it at a level below level three.

So as one can see, one has to make sure that his amp has to have the correct settings before he gets the tone he wants. Of course he has to make sure that he experiments a little bit and play around before he gets the hang of it. Now by making use of these basic settings, he would at least have an idea of how to go about.
