I'm going to post this here as well as on TB, let's see who wins!
Ok, so I was watching THIS (linky):

And the drive tone at 0:53 is

but he's using a GB Shuttle
SO... does a Rusty Box sound remotely like that? Youtube says yes/no/maybe, but what does ILF say? Anything else cop that tawn? Does the pope wear a funny hat?

Rusty Box definatly sounds even better than that, but yes it should be able to get that tone, just a much meatier and nastier in the mids. To get the best possible sound out of the rusty u should bypass yer amp's pre amp by plugging into the effects loop of yer amp

Thanks!

Nasty mids is something I'm definitely interested in

The tone in the vid minus some low end is really close to my ideal tone.

I've got both the Rusty Box and a Shuttle 12.0. I need to listen on better speakers and I'll see what I can come up with.

Yeah, exactly this, really.

Agreed. I could get it really close. The 6.0 Shuttle he has and the 12.0 that I have are a little bit different but I took his settings and tried to match what I heard. The Rusty Box was running through a GK 210RB. I was able to get it, what I would consider, very close. I didn't spend a ton of time on it so with your tweaking you could probably get it even closer. I did like it with the Rusty better but I like the Rusty Box A LOT so I'm bias. I don't and didn't run it through the effects loop either just for a FYI.

I run Rusty Box in the input of both my amps, like the sound it in this way more. Can't wait to push it with Speaker Cranker

Thanks everyone! Guess I'd better get lil' Rusty then.
And that Grind Fuzz... is on the wish list. TWICE.
