Mesa Maverick clips

okstrat · Jul 7th 2012

All 9 profiles recorded here. After each gap is a new profile. Three different mics, two different preamps, a Mesa Maverick and a 1972 Marshall slant cab = good times!

Never heard the Maverick before but from these clips it's a freakin' killer amp!

It sounds pretty interesting in your sound clips, I too never heard the Maverick before!

What surprised me the most was the amount of gain - I knew about the Mavericks but never had played one, so my understanding of them was from Mesa's literature mostly. It has enough gain IMHO for classic to hard rock, and the tones with single coils and the higher gain are pretty nice too. I couldn't profile it, but amp also has reverb on both channels, which is a nice touch.

Forgot to mention, guitar used was a Eric Johnson rosewood strat with a Duncan hot rails in the bridge.

One other tidbit - first three are SM57 in same position, amp same settings, three different preamps - none, the ART Tube MP, and the Focusrite. As And44 mentioned in another thread, not a lot of difference with an SM57 but I could hear some.

Great clips man......I can't get over how real they sound..... I just think these clips/profiles really show off the greatness off the KPA partnered with a good profile....it sounds like the amp in the room.......:D

Thanks! I've certainly gotten better at miking a cab since I bought the Kemper for sure! Down side is, I'm going to have to redo my older profiles...

Thnx man - I downloaded more than once so don't get mad, when you check the d/l : donation ratio

These are great profiles. Happy to support.

No Worries Hendrik. I have had enough downloads that if everyone who donated downloaded 4 times, it wouldn't throw the percentages off by much. I appreciate you and everyone else who support my efforts.

If the percentage gets much lower (it's hovering around 3% now) I may change to a fee based profile service like others do. If that ever happens then anyone who ever donated would get access to my profiles without having to purchase them. I'd just send out a mass email to y'all before they hit the website. Which I may start doing anyways, the file size of profiles are so small!
