- This video is bout reggae amp settings for rhythm and lead guitar reggae tones tones.
Normally when I play out I use a Fender Hot Rod amp but that was not available so I use the software version of the Fender Twin black face and a 4x10 cabinet.
I then switch to the Vox style AC 30 for the reggae amp settings lead tone. The gain is just above half way for the crunch and bite tones and fully up for a heavy lead reggae sound.
When it comes on to reggae amp settings nothing is cast in stone and just have to trust your ears - if it sounds good then it is.
What you really want is a tone that is sweet, bright and cut through the mix. Take out some of the low end - I very often leave the bass on zero. Try not to use too much mids.
I have given some reggae amp settings here for the Fender Hot Rod. Use it a base to come up with settings that you like.

How has this channel only got 15K subscribers whilst other timewasting, money-grubbing chancers have hundreds of thousands? State of the world I guess but is sad. Great content brother.
Everything and everyone has their place and they all contribute to the community! I am happy that TH-cam has given me the opportunity to share what I love with the world! Peace and ❤️ man!
Very nice sound, I dont have logic but is very interesting info, thank you
Thanks and hugs, from brazil 🇧🇷💚💛💙
You are welcome
Very helpful video. I tend to stick to 5,6,6, on the EQ on my amps and MFX pedals but will definitely experiment with these suggestions. See if o can get a sweeter tone.
Thanks again.
Love your style brother!
I really liked the sound!
Great lesson here. God bless you
Beautiful sound👍👍🙏🙏
I love this!
Blessings!
Greats tips bro... thanks endelessly.. i ll try using this for my studio recordings
Give thanks Mastah, how I can finde more tips like that in you channel?
Give thanks again Bless up
I love the feel brother. And where can I get this instrumental (the reggae instrumental) you were using?
@@playreggaeguide If you don't mind what was this one in the video called? Can you please also do a tutorial on how you mix/master your reggae drum patterns?
Really great advice! Cheers mate 👍
Great Clip, thanks for it. I play SKA Music and try to find the best sound setting. I use a VOX AMP AC 30 X. I guess it takes some time for me to find the right tone;-)
Sounds great for a software amp
Great video. Give thanks! Which settings and which amp would you use in Logic for playing palm muted and "regular" muted (on the fretboard)... you know, the Tchaka-Sound?
Flatwound strings preferably really old and never changed. Fender Jazz or P Bass. Tone rolled off. electro harmonix octave multiplexer pedal for the sub lows and a SansAmp bass driver will do the trick
Depends on the amp and the guitar. My amp (mesa boogie) on 4 gain wouldn’t be as clean, especially with humbuckers
I totally agree with you! So how you adjust it for reggae or would you not use in that context?
Hi there! what about the pedal? I've seen in other videos you are using the RP360XP , what setup do you usually use? Good videos by the way!
Good stuff like always ! Where can I grab yours backtrack ?
Rootical Tune...!!!! Yeahman
Beautiful man
Hi, what about the guitar pickups? what is best for rhythm and what is best when playing a guitar solo? Thanks
@@playreggaeguide The link only talks about different types of guitar. It doesn't mention which pickup you used for lead and which for rhythm.
@@JestaHs07 humbucker for both
What Guitar are you playing?
Nice Video btw
Ibanez AS153 Sunburst
Very helpful. But what kind of guitar are you playing? Fender?
@@playreggaeguide thanks
I have Logic Pro. How do I plug in the bass to the computer. And is the amp installed in the software? And you micd it in the software? 🤣 mind blown
Use an audio interface
Which guitar u using?
Much love. What’s the go to amp in a professional recording studio for reggae rhythm?
Your crown jewels will be the fender twin reverb or the roland jc 120. But any bright and clean sounding amp will work.
The Fender Twin or the Deluxe Reverb which is lighter are also good go to.
Fender twin and Deluxe Reverb are also good! Thanks 🙏🏿
Base 4
Gain 4
Mid 3
Treble 8
Master 7
What kind of settings do you use on a Hot Rod?
From memory generally, Bass = 0 (Hot Rods have too much bass), Drive = 5, Mids = 6, Trebble = 6, Presence = 6. Peace and love
@playreggaeguide I got rid of the Hot Rod and went with a Fender Pro Reveb. There is much better clarity in it.
Yeah thats a great amp! What years was it?
@playreggaeguide It is one of the new ones. So mine is like 2021.
Ok cool!
Yasss, first!

Hey Rohan I have a question about the reggae music scene, Do you think that someone who doesn't believe or align themselves with the rastafari really belong in the reggae scene?
