    Hi all,


    Anyone know where I can buy a KPA in the Los Angeles area?


    Thanks!


    California Vintage Guitar & Amps, JRR Shop, Noisebug, Westlake Pro Audio, Gear Orphanage, Perfect Circuit Audio in the L.A area. Bananas at Large up in the bay area. Then Sweetwater, Alto Music, Nova Musik, American Musical Supply, Zzounds, Maken Music, The Gibson Retail Shop, Calistro Music, Rainbow Guitars, The Guitar Sanctuary to name a few outside of California.

    I'm here at work looking around the forum and feel compelled to write up my experiences so far with the kemp.
    Firstly, I'm not as good as the next guy with regards to getting things hooked up and tweaked in perfectly. And I don't have the time to play as I use to. I was never happy with my AxeII or Ultra @ my playing level. It always seemed like the parameters were there to make a bad or ordinary tone to sound better. It was a tease that someday I will know enough about how to tweak in an amp that I will reach tonal nirvana. That with the next update the blanket will be lifted off those bare amp-core tones. It never happened for me. AND! I almost became cynical that I will ever get back to what I knew was good guitar sounds, feeling & behavior. Today I found myself almost worried that when I jump on my Kemper at lunch; it'll sound lifeless, lacklustered or non-inspiring. Was not the case :) The more I play the Kemp the more it raises my confidence that I don't have to worry about my gear so I could work more on creating.
    "I'm HOT for Kemper" too because it "got me there". I am able to take good amp sounds and make them sound better... or not. This FINALLY seems like just the beginning. I don't even have my gear arranged at its optimum because I am stuck playing this one profile. [Blocked Image: http://i135.photobucket.com/albums/q131/CrossHairSB/TheJokenroom001.jpg]
    This is an old attic picture where I play and need to optimally arrange all my gear for a fresh pic. I really like to jam loud with "face-melting" so consider myself an amp/cab kinda guy. Right now I just have it connected in (1) 4x12 but think I should use both 4x12's. What do you think?


    Whoa! That looks like a "Back to the Future" scene waiting to happen! Don't get blown across the room :)
