Need help with low tuning clean guitars

Charlie E. · June 26th, 2012, 08:17 PM

Hey guys I've never had to record low B clean stuff before and now that I am I've noticed both my Vox Nightrain and Fender Ultimate Chorus rattle when I strum the low B.
I take it their speakers aren't meant for such low tuning so is my only option to basically record direct or are there other alternatives?
I suppose the fact that I'm using Lundgren pickups doesn't help matters...
Any advice would be appreciated.

Small update.
A friend suggested that I try the SansAmp Bass driver that I literally just got and it turns out I am able to get a better sound with it than I was able to with the Pod.
