	This article is a stub that doesn't explain presence very well. Also, answers that are just a link are discouraged on SE sites. – Neil Fein May 6 '11 at 22:51

Presence boosts high frequencies. I believe the idea behind it is that you will be more 'present' whilst soloing.

	I was just about to link to that wiki article. I think that explains it pretty well. – boehj May 6 '11 at 21:07
	Yeah it says basically the same thing you said thanks. – theCalebRyan May 6 '11 at 21:18
