| Post subject: | Question for Thrash Guitarists |
I've found that when I play my thrash especially when I'm shredding if I load up the reverb I get awesome killer sound with my distortion. What do you guys do with reverb??? Where does your knob stand on your rig??? |

Depends on your guitar, your pedals and your amp, doesn't it. I prefer not playing with my distortion turned all the way up, but I'm no thrash guitarist. |

I play with a ton of distortion. It just makes it easier to play faster and louder. And it makes harmonics much more of a breeze. I usually get better sound when I solo with reverb. |

I'm also no thrash guitarist but I can tell you that you sohuld be very careful with reverb, especially in a live situation. When applied to a recording it can create room and atmosphere, live it can wash everything out and make it all a blur. Which I guess is good if you're My Bloody Valentine, not great for stuff that requires definition though. |

I've had pretty good results piling it on for solos in recordings. But I do agree it can really hurt riffs. |

Not a big fan of it, especially when I'm doing thrashy stuff. |
