Ch. 3 of the Triple Crown™ TC-100 provides massive high gain potential, but it also offers a truly versatile range of lower and medium gain sounds for both rhythm and single-note playing. Andy Timmons offers up some great riffs in many styles to showcase the wide range of gain available from the TC-100 while Mesa’s Director of R&D, Doug West, dials in great Tones with insights for settings sweet spots throughout the range.
Recorded with Andy’s signature Ibanez AT-100 with DiMarzio Cruiser neck and middle pickups and a Dimarzio AT-1 bridge pickup, through his pedalboard and into the Triple Crown TC-100 head and a 2×12 Rectifier Compact cab. Mic’d with a Shure KSM 313 and a Shure SM57 and blended 50% each.
