Time to power this thing up...

After a week of thorough research and gathering opinions on forums, I've opted for the Kemper (over other modelers).

The PowerRack arrived yesterday and I'm going to make a point today of getting it hooked up and doing some playing. Looking forward to having the ability to start recording great guitar tones again, but WITHOUT having to mic up cabs.

Onward and upwards!

Thanks for the warm welcome!

I often do a first day "mini-tune" with new amps, and it's been some years since I bought anything so I've relegated my afternoon to sipping an ale and doing a little recording. Have the KM-THRASH profile modified to taste and will proceed to "press the red button" soon. Well, as soon as I write something.

Don't know if this is the right place for clips but this is the mini-tune I up together today. I used it for the bass track too.

Great day one post Bob! I saw some of your youtube videos. Are you gonna profile that Bogner Shiva Japan?

Thanks. I do plan on profiling the Shiva-J if I get the opportunity to do it before it's gone (sold it to a friend so I could buy the Kemper).

Welcome to the forum Bob!
Nice groovy playing and that's a great sound in the song clip, with the kind of squishy amp tones that I like.
I forget now but what amp is that Keith Merrow THRASH profile from?
There is also a dedicated forum section for posting song clips in. I hope to hear more of this good stuff.
Cheers!

Thank you. I'm not sure what amp the profile is based upon. Will have to take another looksee.

WHAT!?!!!? THE Bob Savage has crossed over to the darkside!?!? Have fun dude, can't wait to hear some of your tracks, and some of your own profiles as well. For anyone that doesn't know bob, he's been a mainstay on the big guitar forums for well over a decade, and was one of the original "make a video and put it online" guys with sick chops and killer licks. Looking forward to your opinions!

Hahahaha, well, I've had a number modelers over the years, in fact, I remember fooling lots of people on HC when I bought the original POD and didn't mention it was a modeler. Nobody heard anything wrong until I told them it was a POD.

I had the original Axe-FX standard too but now the modelers are at a whole new level. Really looking forward to digging into this thing!

Good to see you here and thanks for the kind words.

Hi Bob!

How have you been? Remember, the Guitar Army group on mp3.com back in 2001? Good to see you again,

German

Hey German!

Wow, yes that that was a LONG time ago! Great to see you again too. Did you keep in touch with any of the other guys that were part of that group?
