How To Use Jazz Tube Amps

By Gwen Lowe


Blues or jazz music is a very interesting genre that would make use of very clean sounds or tones that do not have the grungy and heavy guitar sounds that rock or heavy metal would make use. Of course in order to get that smooth tone, one would have to make some adjustments to the amp to get it. Now if one plays this kind of genre, then he should probably know how to use jazz tube amps.

Now one has to get certain amps for this because only certain sound tubes will be able to give the perfect sound. So if one would want to play this genre, then he should make sure that he gets a really good amplifier that is specifically made for only this type of purpose. Of course in order to do this, he has to do some research on the specific types of amplifiers.

Now the settings are extremely important simply because the settings are what would make the sounds. So the key here is to make sure that everything has the right settings so that it is possible to have the right type of tone. Now one of the important things that he should take note of would be distortions.

Unlike rock and roll or metal wherein both use a lot of distorted sounds, jazz or blues do not make use of such sounds. So the key to handling this is to make sure that there is only a little bit of distortion that is present. What one would want is to make sure that he has the smooth tone.

Now if one would want to add a little bit of distortion in order to add variety, then he may actually do so. However, he has to be conscious to make sure that the distortion is only very little and very subtle. There are actually some jazz bands that use the distortion effect but only on a very minimal level.

Aside from the distortion, there are actually other settings that one would have to know about as well. One very important thing to take note of is that in this type of genre, the bass level has to be more and the treble level less. Now if one were to set the treble at a high note, then the sound will not be good to listen to.

In order to get that setting, one has to set the bass level at a certain number and so as the treble. Now the bass level should be at least at seven or maybe even higher. The treble, on the other hand should be at least a five or maybe even at a lower level but never below three.

So as one can see, one has to make sure that his amp has to have the correct settings before he gets the tone he wants. Of course he has to make sure that he experiments a little bit and play around before he gets the hang of it. Now by making use of these basic settings, he would at least have an idea of how to go about.
