Me noodling through my Peavey Valve King 212 with Eminence Man-O-War speakers. I was unhappy with the harsh, brash sound of the amp until I put a Boss GE-7 EQ in the effects loop and cut 1.6K almost completely. It really smoothed out the tone quite a bit and is a lot closer to the Marshall sound I like. I am playing my Epiphone Les Paul Studio with Gibson Burstbucker PRO pickups.

I recommend the Marshall, but that's only cause Marshalls are my favorite amps. : )

so if i bought this i could play some nice metallica/Black Label society riffs with this and maybe a nice overdrive?

a V30 in a valveking? wouldnt that sound bad as the valveking already puts out too much high mid as it is?

At 2:11 that's a really half assed rendition of "Beautiful Girls" by Van Halen. Thanks! : )

What is the song at 2.11, after Panama? It sounds really familiar and I hate it when I can't tell what it is when I clearly know it. Thanks, nice video anyways.

Put a Celestion Vintage 30 in your Valve King. That will be a significant improvement. Also run an EQ in your effects loop. You can really tailor your overdrive tones this way. I would choose a Valve King with these upgrades over a Hot Rod Deluxe... they have great cleans but I don't care for the overdrive on those.

I prefer Marshalls, but VOX amps are also great. The Burstbucker PROs were an improvement in tone... but the stock pickups were pretty good I thought. If you have the extra $200 to spend it's worth it, but otherwise keep the stock ones. They're very good pickups also.

Man you play good... What's your opinion about VOX amps in comparison to Marshals?Btw, do the Gibson Burstbucker's make much of a difference in the Epi Les Pauls? I have Studio LP and I'm thinking about changing out the stock pickups for a Burstbucker Pro or Burstbucker 2's. Good idea or no?
