Hey guys.
New here and I've only been playing guitar for a few years. I recently got a new spider IV 75 watt amp. I cant afford anything redonk expensive cause I'm a percussionist normally and hopefully getting my degree soon.
Does anyone know any presets for the spider amp that sound similar to periphery or bulb style? My guitar atm is an Ibanez 350dx in Drop C. Any help would be awesome.

Surprisingly the marshall Jvm is a very very djenty amp. It has too much gain though.. I use the boost to compress it alittle more so I leave the volume at 5.
A lot of that depends on the venue. If you are playing a small club and using a tube amp, IMO its better to have a powerbrake to saturate the tubes and really get the great tone out of the amp without the people in the front row just hearing the distance between them and the speakers. But in my situations, i have had very little change that i have had to make in order to tweak the tone out between live and studio settings, usually its just a number forward or backward. A little goes a long way another thing to remember is that if you're being mic'd up, it should sound just as close, if not spot on to when you are in a studio.Please correct me if i am wrong but are these tone setting for LIVE or RECORDING purposes?? Which obviously are going to be different, and i see some settings on these amps that make me think for live?? sorry to ruin the flow of the thread just seemed important to know
