"Well, it's one louder, isn't it? It's not ten. You see, most blokes, you know, will be playing at ten. You're on ten here, all the way up, all the way up, all the way up, you're on ten on your guitar. Where can you go from there? Where?”

Well, why don’t you just make 10 the loudest then?

All joking side, on of the biggest rookie mistakes engineers can make when recording guitars is thinking that turning everything up on an amp makes it sound bigger. In reality it makes it sound smaller. And it's not intuitive to know this.

Oh, that completely depends on the amp. Blackface Fender Deluxe non reverb? It’s usually on 8. Marshall Jubilee? Reasonably low but loud enough to get speaker breakup and cabinet resonance. Silvertone 1485? Only has one good sound: both knobs on 10.

No the real rookie mistake, and the one you always have to talk them out of is too much input gain on the amp.

Gotta drive those power tubes though. I use an attenuator to let the amp open up but keep the actual volume through the cab at a reasonable level. And my hearing intact.

If you are making death metal it doesn't matter the grosser the guitars the better that's why you just white noise live they just play something

You should have taken the caps off and put them back on so it looks like they are in a normal position.
Trust me … That is way more fun 😜
