@@DarrellBraunGuitar BTW if you want to give that Fender FMT some updates the Black Fender staggered locking tuners, Black Schaller locking strap buttons (Schaller makes Fenders locking strap buttons) and Black Fender American Series String Guides look and work awesome on that guitar. But FYI (if I recall correctly) despite the headstock already having 2-pin alignment holes the pattern doesn't align to the Fender locking tuners so you need to jig new alignment holes and I also think I recall the post holes need to be reamed out to 10mm (I think from stock 8mm). That specific Tele model has non-standard stock tuner specs from other comparable MIM Tele's.

Sounds really good and natural, you also hear the tube, opposite to a lot of other amp-in-a-pedal-solutions, which I have heard or tried during the last time. If you need more "beef", add a PlexiTone or Kaluna, and you easily get everything up to Heavy Rock easily and in excellent quality. Only for Metal you certainly need a different solution. The balanced DI out also is nice for recording. Even on my C.A.B. M+ the difference in quality is noticeable, if I use the XLR or the jack plug. But also the Ground lift can be helpful.

Something that Laney IRT-Pulse tried to do, but failed (cannot get convincing tones without additional EQ). Now we have Blackstar Dept. 10 dual drive, Two Notes Revolt, and this one. I wish someone will make shootout for all of them. Ampster sounds intriguing here.
@christophertaylor1671
@christophertaylor1671 Год назад
Exactly! 👍 I play at church and we've converted to the ampless stage like so many. I've owned and sold the Simplifier and the Amp Academy, both of which were too grainy and artificial sounding. I'm at an impass between the Ampster and the Revolt, having been so disappointed with digital simulators and really liking what I hear from these two tube driven analog platforms.

@robertbrown2728 Год назад
Thanks for the video it really got my attention . I'm wondering if you described the link socket incorrectly. You said that it bypasses the cabinet emulation but my understanding is that it bypasses everything including the preamp so if you connect another amp you are getting the same signal that is arriving at the pedal. Other people have suggested that if you want to just bypass the cabinet emulation you can do so by plugging an IR loader or whatever into the send socket.

The device that has well and truly replaced my traditional amps is the BluAmp Amp1 Mercury. I've not found anything more musical and practical both in the digital and analog domains. In my opinion, despite being 10 years old, it should be the benchmark device for any new "amp in a box" system. But it doesn't seem to have caught on in America or Canada - I enjoy watching gear videos, and so often when a device like the Palmer here is praised, I'm asking myself whether the reviewer is aware of the Amp1 and the fact that it has been able to do what new Blackstar or Palmer gear does, for 10 years, only better.
@richpizzo3734

Of course, I use whatever amplifier is on stage. I have my own mesa 2x12 cabinet. Can I use Carl Martin ampster as an amp head? I think I'll use the xlr output when I'm too lazy to move the cabin. This pedal seems to get me through any situation.

Most of these PC ports aren't used, but except for one usb. There is an option to plug more speakers into your amplifier, when all you had was hyper drive toys powered by 9V. Might not be aware that's what you imitating with holding a pick with volume rocker. Let's be clear you getting Ibanez, is it best to have - there will be no answers. Must have a big wooden desk so nobody would see it on your car dashboard. Problem should have it as software, but they resist with usb-c audio driver.

Digital and solid state devices- amps, pedals and software, are the equivalent of eating on paper plates. Tube amps are akin to eating on fine china with excellent food, great friends and having a wonderful time. Tube amps are 4 dimensional. The alternatives are 2 dimensional. However, it is amazing what is being produced in the artificial world. They are fun and offer a cheap, or at least a cheaper way to experience many high end sounds. Much of it is mere novelty acts. There is an aspect that guitars are becoming simply, input devices. Toys, Toys, Toys. Our Toys addiction will be the i/o switch of us all.

Yeah the more the world goes digital it makes me want to Retreat to analog. I think was a much more Superior found anyway it had heart and soul to it. Over the last year I've gotten rid of a lot of things from my home studio breaking it down into more of an envelope Studio. As much as possible I do record on my PC but it's just a multi-track stereo recorder you can't go in and edit note-for-note pull out things you don't like to put them back in place else. It makes you be more of a musician when you can't do that. I would rather play something 100 times to get it right. Cheat my way through editing things so much that it sounds robotic. Don't feel bad because you can't figure out some of this digital programming things You Are Not Alone. I think people have taking the joy out of music by not wearing the same using Auto-Tune everything you don't have to tune your guitar you can audit unit pretty sad. Don't claim to be a professional anything. But I personally think that's why music is gone the way it has now nobody wants to put in the work to learn how to play instrument they just want to make some odd noises and pasta together make a couple verses and words bring them together and call that a a song pretty sad by my estimate. People cheat herself out of the joy of learning. And I really think the long run people that do that well really come to regret it I think music is the gift from God. Especially songwriting. How else can you explain waking up in the middle of the night and grabbing a guitar keyboard and out of midair in just a few minutes you have a beautiful piece of music come to you I can't find another explanation. Keep on playing my friend have a good one
@hansgrayman4809

Very nice. I've been looking for a good tube pedal preamp to do exactly that. Give me real analog and tube tone and reaction without all the other junk in a modeler. And real, not a mediocre copy of a tube circuit. This is not quite what I want though. I don't see why you need a switch for the cabs, when I think many like me would pick one and leave it. After all, with a real tube head, you don't go changing cabs mid show. I need two channels. A good clean and a good dirty, that I can boost with pedals. And it doesn't need to be super small. It can be the size of a FM3 (which I'm trying to sell mine of) or a Cortex, and still fit on a pedal board with other pedals. Not if it means cutting features and tone.
