    so if I wanted to profile my amp…

    Whats a good budget friendly option? I feel lazy for just asking but it’s a bit overwhelming with all the stuff out there and I’m pretty illiterate when it comes to load boxes, ir’s etc… Is there like a pedal of box I can just mic my amp into it and it captures it?

    Some clean tone - Sultans of Swing

    I was shocked how “stratty” my EC-256 got on split coil mode. The bang for the buck on this guitar keeps getting better! I used my Blankenship custom 2 channel 18 watter and marshall 1960 cab, straight in, compressed on post

    Chiron clip

    Got this pedal from Wayne last week, man this thing is killer!! I’m still dialing it in because there is lots of tonal options with the 3 knobs. I’m really liking tweaking between the gain and level. This clip is probably more gain than I would really use but it’s nice to know it’s there...

    New Cab Day

    so in August my band played the Whisky - I use my SD-1>Blankenship Masterplex and they usually have Blackstar cabs which are ok. But this show was with Winger and they rented a whole backline, which had Marshall 1960A cabs. It had been a long time since I played a 1960A cab - I thought it...

    Boss SD-1 with “Heavy EJ” mod

    First off let me say I love the SD-1 stock. But I’ve also found some mods I like as well. Here’s a new track I just wrote/recorded - for the tone that kicks in at 25 seconds I’m using the SD-1 with what I call the “Heavy EJ mod”. Going for a quasi Eric Johnson tone with more gain and a bit...
