Ahh, the soundman request..."can you turn down?!" IMHO, guitar amps
need to be at a certain volume to get the character of the amp to
sound through. Most amps need to be at a "reasonable" (louder than
some soundmen like) volume to let their character shine through.
Here's some solutions I found helpful:
1. Aim the amp across the stage, rather than pointing at the
audience, that way there is less interference with the PA volume,
plus it acts as a great monitor for you.
2. Use a small amp that you can drive at max. Great tone without
the volume.
