I just got a B-52 LG100A head with an AT-412 cab.  This was my upgrade from a peavey vss20... huge improvement!!  I love this thing.  Any one else have a B-52?  What do you think of them?  What kind of sounds can you get out of them?   Anthrax, Metallica, Megadeth.....?   Tell me what you think

I can give you recommended settings for bands to try and mimmick their sound.

Never tried one before, so no idea how it sounds.

Simple advice is for thrash metal;

Lower mids to about 2-3 and crank the bass up a bit. I wouldn't have the Gain any higher than 7/8, and treble about 6-8.

Varies on each amp, but play around with that for starters.
