HOW DO I GET ANGUS YOUNGS GUITAR TONE WITH A SPARK AMP
ACDC ANGUS YOUNGS TONE WITH A SPARK AMP
Select the Right Amp Model
Choose a model that emulates a Marshall Plexi or similar British-style amp. Look for the "British" amp models in the Spark app.
Amp Settings
Here are some suggested settings to achieve that classic Angus Young tone:
Gain: 6-7
Bass: 5
Mid: 6-7
Treble: 6-7
Presence: 5-6
Master Volume: Adjust to taste (around 6-7 for a good cranked sound)
Cabinet Selection
Select a cabinet that matches a 4x12 configuration, ideally with Celestion-style speakers, to replicate the punchy sound Angus uses.
Add Effects
Overdrive/Boost: Use a light overdrive pedal setting for more gain and sustain. Keep the gain low (around 2-3) and the level high (around 7-8).
Reverb: Add a subtle room reverb to give some depth (Mix: 10-15%, Decay: Short).
5. Fine-Tune EQ
Low Cut: Set around 80-100 Hz to tighten the low end.
High Cut: Set around 6-7 kHz to smooth out the highs.
6. Play Style
Emphasize your picking dynamics. Angus often plays with a bright, punchy attack, so ensure your technique reflects that.
Example Settings in Positive Grid Spark:
Amp Model: British Plexi
Gain: 6.5
Bass: 5
Mid: 6.5
Treble: 6.5
Presence: 5.5
Master Volume: 6
Cabinet: 4x12 with Celestion speakers
Overdrive Pedal: Level 7, Gain 2
Reverb: Mix 12%, Decay Short
Final Tips
Use a Gibson SG or similar guitar with humbuckers for the best results.
Adjust settings based on your specific guitar and playing style for optimal tone.
Experiment with these settings to dial in a sound that fits your setup!
