I play on the crunch channel green mode with a substantial amount of output valve disto, and I have a cable long enough to leave my room and play in the living room so I don't become deaf (LOL). I mean, that's what rock n' roll's philosophy was right? Run valves till they bleed?
But because I'm not alone in a 2 story house with grandparents I usually use the crunch orange like DH said. I crank the gain higher for older stuff (think Whole Lotta Rosie) and turn it down for some songs (Hells Bells doesn't really need that much, neither does Thunderstruck...) Now that I think about it, OD1 green might do even better than crunch... thanks Andy ^^
