So let’s go in detail through those three questions and then you might understand why I’m so much in love with this the Black Widow MGP-1A. You may also use those three questions for your own relationship, but I’ll decline any responsibility… However, when it comes to gear, it’s easier - at first, I generally ask myself three main questions: Love, so I’m not gonna be able to help you in any shape or form for your relationship and/or to help you to find your future beloved one. However, when we take time to learn more about it and when we know what we’re looking for, we can end up to find the one and only. Regardless if we talk about relationship or gear, I’m pretty convinced there’s very high probability it would end up being a very deceptive situation. Therefore I would perfectly understand if some of you would disagree with me at first, but bare with me because I never believed in love at first sight - how could it be? It would be mean that it only comes down to what one can see, only based on the physical appearance and nothing else.

So I’ve tried really hard to find my own blindspots… even thought I’m still in the honey moon period. So not only it’s not easy to be sure you will see it the way I do, but also I have to double down on my bias to be sure I will be as objective as I can be. One of the reasons is that I completely felt in love with this product. It’s not that I didn’t wanted to write it, nor that the product is not good… So why the struggle?

Check out my complete guide to amplifier controls to learn how to adjust these controls and many more to get the best settings possible.I’m gonna be honest with you, I’ve been struggling A LOT to write this article. Some amps also have other controls such as presence and contour. Neck pickup: this will suit the cleaner sections of Metallica songs, as it produces a warmer effect.Bridge pickup: this is most commonly used as it suits heavier styles of music and allows the tone to cut through, even with distorted amp settings.Remember, you can change the pickup selector to affect the sharpness and depth of the tone. Bass: low-to-medium, start on number 3.Of course, this is inconvenient midway through a song, so consider investing in an EQ effects pedal, or change your pickup selector or tone control on your guitar to allow for these changes. You may need to adjust the amp settings for cleaner sections of the song to make sure the tone is correct.

Use the bridge pickup on your guitar to avoid the sound becoming too muffled.

EQ: if your amp has a single EQ setting, then turn this down to favour the low-end (bass) frequencies.

Turn the treble up to 6 to start with to avoid the tone becoming muddy. The higher the treble is, the sharper and more defined the sound will be.

Treble: this determines the high frequency sounds.

A relatively low mids-setting is characteristic for Metallica, which is often described as “scooping” the amp.

Mids: this refers to the mid-range frequencies.

This should usually be quite high to sound like Metallica, so turn this up to 8 to start with. High bass results in a fuller and “boomy” quality to the tone.

Bass: determines the low frequency sounds.

Some amplifiers will just have an “EQ” control, whereas others will allow you to adjust the bass, mids and treble settings individually. The EQ settings allow you to shape the tone of your guitar.
