Kemper spotting: Lincoln Brewster

Very cool, thanks for sharing.

cool thanks

Actually, this is a very significant spotting...Kemper should jump all over it and setup an endorsement.

Lincoln's recordings and live tone with the Line 6 Pods is legendary.
He then switched to the Axe-FX.
Then he switched back to the Line 6 HD500.
Now the Kemper...very interesting.

A LB rig pack would be extremely popular.
He is a brilliant guitarist with a HUGE fanbase...

Love Lincoln Brewster. With his POD setup he would post/share settings frequently with anyone. Hope he sticks with the Kemper and makes some profiles available!

Don't get me wrong, but how can you expect exceptionally good profiles from someone who is known as a long time amp modeler user? Isn't it a completely different story to build presets based on given amp models compared to profiling tube amps?

It sounded much better live. That sounds like it was recorded with TV effects mics. I was the audio tech on the stage that night. I wanted to buy a kemper after I heard the tones he was getting from his. Great player."

Sound: nice
Playing: ... well, not my kind of music I guess. Thought it was a little bit "over the top" ._.

Guys

It's the National Anthem at a family ball game, not Jimi at 'Woodstock'.

Lincoln can play anything, he's a genius guitar player.

You want Jimi at Woodstock...I don't think Jimi was using a Kemper.

Yeah, but if I were a family member caring nothing about guitars etc. I would have thought:

But hey... I just didn't like it, it's just "too much" for me for such a simple melody

Nice spot !
Hopefully the kemper didn't crash at that moment

I have always liked his strat tones, so thinking is that with all of the editing parameters available in the KPA, he would dial in some great strat profiles.

24 minutes in he talks about using the kemper. I think I figured out which Plexi Profile he is using. I have the exact same guitar and pickups he uses and have been using his POD tones for years. After digging through all the plexi profiles I can find on the exchange I found one that sounds identical to his tone on the new Oxygen CD. Type Brewster Plexi 50 into the Rig Exchange, I have added my tweaked version there. Sounds pretty good with a strat. You might want to back off the gain a tad. I had it cranked for lead when I uploaded it.

I could tell you as well, that when he was in our town last year at an arena, I went up to chat gear etc. He was engrossed with trying out the guy with the black glasses Kemper. This was Lincoln's first encounter with the Kemper. He mentioned, "I'm sold. this thing is ridiculous" Here's a photo or two I took. This was also my first encounter with a Kemper. I left thinking, "Great! Now I have to check this thing out and it's gonna cost me when I get hooked." HAHAHA
