I like your thick tone, what are your amp controls for the beginning there?
Sometimes I write something like this, and I look back, and I hear all the notes being playing, and I think to myself, I bet these notes I play, can actually be little mini triplets up and down the scales. I can definitely hear areas here where you could probably do that, when you get to that stage. I love the melody tho, definitely doesn’t get boring at all.

Thanks Calvin. I use a Boss ME25 processor ( which is obsolete by the way) and a Vox amp with bass and treble at 40%. Then I used Audacity to tweak the tone as well ( cutting down treble and enhancing the Mids). See the following if that helps.
Preamp effect:-
Tweed
Drive amount 12
Tone amount 77
Volume amount 50.
Delay effect:-
Delay amount 50 ms
Tone amount 47

I dont have any honestly. I find some great chug rhythm beats, but all my soloing was off my grundge pedal as it gave off the most feedback. But since getting the spider V, there are so many different preset tones its unbelievable. I still use the grundge pedal tho. It’s one of my favourites.

Ya. I have used it too. Its great. You also make tones and access tones online too. Found it pretty cool. Though the tones mimicking those of some classic songs like Comfortably Numb, Tender Surrender etc are not perfect
