If you've got tube retainers, there's no reason to pull the tubes.

I generally have presence, mids, and treble set around 12 o clock (maybe a little higher) but the bass control set around 9 o clock (right where it starts to have an effect).
That's just with the BE alone. I usually tweak the EQ slightly when using any of the additional functions on the back (SAT, FAT, C45) or the HBE input.
it might sound a bit odd that the bass is set that low, but with my other amp (BE and SAT) I generally have the bass set around 11 o clock.
My KS (Marshall JCM800 model 1987 50 watt) has loads of low end if needed, I keep my Bass around the 9 o'clock and adjust to taste based on the cabinet Im running thru. I have a scumback loaded Marshall slant with M75/J75 mix (awesome speakers IMO) that can handle more bass that my Vin 30 cabinets, . I also have the FAT switch which changes the dynamic a little, I like running the FAT switch on and adjust the Bass control, Presence really kicks in around 3 o'clock, same with treble. having the KS mod with FAT,SAT,C45 and EFX loop gives me all the gain and tone options I can squeeze out of a 50 watt Marshall.

I saw a new one at Maken' Music in Chicago and it did have those knobs. I prefer chicken head or Marshall style myself.Nico":23rvk7oz said:hi2nw":23rvk7oz said:NAD... just got the big brother to my Jet City Friedman... sounds killer!

Chicken head looks better Dave.RACKSYSTEMS":3bew46ce said:I got sick of the crappy Marshall knobs. All the new ones just suck, stripped set stews etc. This is how they come now or you could have cream.
