85- Tube Amp Withdrawal (John)
Manage episode 339214334 series 2724103
Dumble’s, Pelxi’s, Tweed’s, Boutique, Rare, Vintage, High Gain... All of these amp types are amazing, expensive, loud and some are rare! I’d love to have an amp collection but don’t have the room or the money to support that new endeavor.
Of course amp modelers remedy most of those excuses. I can profile, capture, or emulate any one of these amps for a fraction of the cost and space. Then there is the portability to take it all on the road or into the studio.
But do amp modelers really sound the same? Do they have the right feel on stage? Does it matter to the audience? Does it matter to the other band members? Do inear monitors make a difference? Who’s abandoned using their tube amps? Will tube amps ever make a come back? And… pedal tweaking, is it really just the guitar player that notices a difference?
Well we will discuss this, and more on this group therapy session with John, on the Tweed Couch.
