Honestly: a Steinberger has not been built for playing the blues..... the sound is kind of nosy with too much treble and high mids, the "bottom" is missing.

yes, thanks for your opinion guenterhaas, I really appreciate it!!
I was experimenting here with everything, also with sound.. but in some way I like it.. and this recording is far from ideal..
and Steinberger? ufuf, I´m the Steinberger lover.. thanks to its headless system and the material used on the neck..
ps: please, If I can ask you to spend your time also with this recording I done before.. I would know if you find this one a little bit better? thanks once more time!

pps: strange thing is that on my PC it sounds a bit different and quieter, on soundcloud it sounds louder, hm..

Don't get me wrong, Steinbergers (made in USA) are great guitars (I'm owning a GM-4TA with Trans Tremolo ), but for blues I would prefer a guitar with a warmer sound (ES 335, Les Paul, old Strat ect.). At the end it's all a matter of personal taste
Here are some of my "bluesy" clips and you can hear the sound (all Kemper) I'm prefering:

I like the lick, but there are places where the notes kind of just get cut off. I have noticed this before with some modelers but not on a KPA. Perhaps it is the guitar, perhaps not.
I record with an Andersen Drop Top Classic S, Apogee Symphony, Pro Tools and the KPA. I find the tonal experience to be outstanding. Sometimes, I actually record dry through the instrument jack on my A-Designs Pacifica Pre, then reamped to the KPA. This give me a very warm analog like sound.
Nice overal fee.
Thanks for sharing.Jake

Yes, it's all a mater of taste - I like the first one better then the second one.
Maybe you could try to roll of the tone control on the guitar a little bit.
