Rather than sell it, I think maybe adding some switches can give me more variety. However, I've played with the EQ more and realized that there are a lot of options already there with the basic tone knobs. The ONLY think I do not like about my Splawn, because a somewhat lack of more options/switches, is that it has a some quality to the tone that I can only describe as squelchy or scratchy. I'm thinking to send my Pro Stock to have the Mid Cut and New/Old swtich added. I'm used to having more EQ on some other amps such as a Negative Feedback knob, which I love, and a few more switches like saturation, mid shift, tight, and others. I played it at my apartment and started really bonding with it again. I have had my Pro Stock up for sale for over a month. I sometimes want my Pro Stock to get more metal or modern tones without having to use an EQ in the loop. I'm looking for clips of what the New/Old does and the Mid Cut.

The 'flavor' of the mids that the switch affects are entirely different than the mids that the knob controls, so your not just getting back to where you started by using the knob to balance the position of the mid cut switch.

Mids cut - mid knob up to compensate / Mids in - mid knob rolled back a bit to compensate.

I think its nice to have on the amp even if you don't use it often - its there for the few times you'd like to have it.įWIW - I find I like the mid cut switch DIS engaged so the amp has all its mid voicing, then roll the mid knob back a bit. For a guitar with more balanced natural tone or a darker sounding guitar like a mahogany Les Paul, engaging the mid cut does have sort of a 'blanketing' effect that takes away some of the good string separation. I find the Mid Cut switch is a godsend if you have a really heavy bright guitar or a guitar with really bright pickups - you can engage the switch and then boost up the more 'natural' sounding mids with the mid knob and get a really nice tone.
