Shobud Single Settings

Post by James R Foster »

Hi All,

Couldn't find anything on this specifically from the search.

Curious to know what settings folks are using for the ShoBud Single???

I've been using B-8, M-0, T-3.5 for my Stage One.

Thanks,

Rocky

Assuming you are referring to EQ settings ala Bass, MIddle, Treble, a lot depends on the electronics you are using such as the pickup, amp, speaker etc.

I don't know that there is a specific setting for single neck Sho~Buds since there are different eras and models of build.

Generally, most steel guitar players like a pretty robust bottom end, cut mids and slightly advanced highs but that varies with different players as well.

I think the most critical settings relate to the mid controls for most systems and players.

Your settings appear to be within the parameters that most players use.

I think the OP is talking about the S15 single channel amp

Perhaps. Hard to tell without more info. If so, there was more than one single Sho~Bud amp. Further description in order.

I set just about every amp like a Fender Twin Reverb...except some of the Peaveys...

That said-Sho~Bud S-15:

Volume-depends on the situation
Bass-7
Middle-4
Treble-3 or 4(subject to change)
Reverb-4 or 5

All are subject to how my ears are working on any given day...

Hope this helps
