Too much gain = no dynamics and just a mush of sound

No such thing as too much Financial Gain though

I really like this analogy. You win the analogy of the day hat!

When playing high gainish stuff, I tend to start with the gain a bit low and just turn it up until whatever I'm playing sounds right. I like the pick attack to be obvious and I like to be able to clean it up a little with my right hand.

Depends on the type of music you're playing.

Blasphemy!! No such thing as to much gain.....

If you're just playing with yourself in your room, more gain is more better.

DUDE... what are you trying to say? You like the play with yourself and others?

Takes courage!
