How can I make my tube amp sound better?
The method I use with tube amps is fairly simple. I turn the volume up on the amp as high as it goes, and then use the volume controls for my guitar pickups to control the volume on the amp overall. If your amp has a master volume knob, it can be used to get a similar sound at lower volumes.
Can I use an overdrive pedal with a tube amp?
most overdrives have a tone control which can help tighten up a rhythm sound or help your lead sound cut through better. you can indeed use a distortion pedal thru a tube amp, for best results run it thru the claen channel so your sound doesn't turn to much.
Do tube amps have distortion?
Tube amplifiers have much more distortion than solid-state amplifiers, but most of it is second-order, which is quite musical. That's why it's called "harmonic" distortion. Second-harmonic distortion is exactly the same note, an octave above.
