Sunn Model T and Acapulco Gold I Shred Shed 

I think it would create a black hole

It's only a small rip in the continuum, fucking do it that shit self heals up most of the time and the colors are glorious

Yeah grow some balls!

damn right!! hahahahah

@@russellzauner LOL!!

I felt the quake in here in cali

I keep coming back to this video for exactly that

Ugh yes

I'd like them to HEAR anything they're actually playing thru..maybe,- and I still doubt it,- but MAYBE someday they will be able to simulate tubes.Solid state can be cool, - like the Beatles VOX Conquerer stuff, - but is just a totally different thing . Clearly, they took the "fake it 'till you make it " shit to heart.I suppose it is a good way to learn the basics.

amp simulators are great too. as good as it will sound, carrying a sunn head and a 4x10 on tour is a huge pain in the ass, and maintenance is another issue.

Kemper is 99% there. I was stressing about that 1% when profiling my own amps, but then I forced myself to keep trying and realized the studio profiles countless producers were making sound better than my own mic'd sound through their expertise and gear. Then, I have also adjusted the profiles in ways that are impossible with amps. My profiles don't sound 3xactky like my real amps, but I have adjusted them into abilities the amp's can't attain. Also, let's say you like a 5150, Orange, Mesa or whatever.. You get 50 profiles of your favorite amp from different sources, and then scroll through them really quickly, and find your perfect "mic'd" tone. All amps have been maintained differently have different bias settings, tubes, and all sorts of stuff. Combined with the studio gear and expertise used to make the profiles, you could end up with something better than you could on your own, without spending about the same value as an amp (or more Inin case of studio gear) on just the amp's tubes, adjustments, cabs etc and TIME. Plus you can duplicate the sound every single day of the year, without shenanigans. With that said, I love the sound of an amp in the room, but it's also been a big pain in the arse working so hard on my sound, to realize it sounds so different with a mic in front. With the Kemper, what you hear is what you get through the end speaker. I still have 3x 100 watt amps and a 50watt, but my daily driver is a Kemper, and I keep spending a lot of money to keep my amps tuned. Had to get rid of some because it was a money pit. By Kemper 2.0 or 3.0, o expect even less of a difference. The Kemper converters are kinda meh, so I run it via sodiff to the AxeFx at 48k which makes it sound better. Another thing is.. I wouldn't go other modeler route unless you want to spend a lot of time fidgeting. Like I said with the Kemper, load up a butt load of profiles and just scroll till you find the right one. Then make some adjustments. That's the best way. With a modeler, you will fidget forever and keep changing IR's until you turn blue or green, infinitely adjust and orobay end up with a worse sound. It took me 2 years to master an AxeFxII. With the Kemper as soon as I ammased a bunch of quality profiles, it was almost instant to get a good sound. The effects took longer, but a great tone came pretty quick. I also runn fuzz and OD pedals in front which help a bit to get a more 3d sound by adding some analogue flavor and randomness to the sound. In fact, I use 4 different OD's to change the characteristics of my tone rather than adjusting the Kemper too much other than the gain knob to play nice. Fuzz totally sucks in digital world. It's just too chaotic to reproduce and ends up sounding pretty 2d in most situations. If you are missing some ambience and can't life without it, mic the studio monitor, room, or a wedge and most it in super slightly. You can even do that during playback on a separate track.. If you want string noise in the room, mic the guitar or whatever. Some people miss the love string noise of they tracked in the same room as the amp, even if it's ever so slight, at 1%. If you can't get the right feedback as you would through a real tube amp, get a practice tube amp and have that pumping out the signal while tracking with headphones, just to use it for feedback. A lot of people do this already, when tracking with the main amp in 10 in an Isp room. Oh yeah, when you hear demos comparing the Kemper to real amps, usually the player is jn the same room, and the mic is spicking up the natural, acoustic string noise and sound of the guitar in the room. Even if it's 1%-5%, it adds some dimension tok the sound.

With all that said we still need the real amps to even make profiles! I'm trying to work on one that hasn't been done before. However, I bought two vintage amps that are the same model, and having a hell of time getting them back to stock. It's a money pit.

I have been dying for an amp sim of an original Sunn Model T. I for my Drone Metal stuff all I do is max out a big muff into my bias FX 5150 sim and it sounds okay, but not truly awesome. Doom and Drone for bedroom musicians don't go together at all.

And that's just how it izzz

Hell Yea! We have a video coming out soon with the Model t and Beta lead in stereo. Stay tuned ; )

Thanks Man!

The Reissue definitely has more gain. I think this version is a bit more flexible musically speaking but the original has more Mojo. A little meaner, and gnarlier, It has a really throaty sound and isn't quite as bright

It had taken me about 10 years before I was able to play through one. They're getting pretty tough to find these days.

@Johnny Wheels replicas made by devout craftsmen are our only hope, but things are looking up in that regard

I didn't know it was possible to get re-issues??

@@jimtroeltsch5998 Yes Fender owns Sunn now and reissued some amps in the 90's but have done nothing since with the IP

Did you try running it into the power section (effects loop)? that's how we did it in this vid, very close to a model t

Shred Shed No I did not. But thanks for suggestion. I will definitely try that when I go back to the jam space tomorrow. I had it running in the chain. I did run into some technical issues though. Originally I had it placed right after my Big Saucy Box and OCD but it made my overall signal super quiet. Even with the pedal on, I was just getting crazy hissing sound and no tone. I decided to change its placement to see if it’ll make any difference and put it right after my tuner but before my OD pedals. It works fine now. I find it really strange how it happened. I thought it would work just fine when placed after my drives. For the record I run my amp on clean channel and add everything on top.

They are getting hard to find everywhere.

Two things. The first one: Now i can die in peace. The second one: I think you need to try the marshall ms2 moded. I own one since 2017 and i converted into a head. Cranked with a fz 300 sounds like a supermassive black hole :D

Cheers from Chiapas. Mexico..

That's the spirit! Fuck yo neighbors ; )

Ahahahaha. Good. All amps need to be at least 90 watts and fuck the neighbors!

Sonically they are very close but they "Feel" very different when you're playing..

Actually Acapulco is modeled after a VINTAGE model t not the fender one.

@@enricoivaldi321 it's still a pedal, it's not gonna feel like any amp.

@@0megalul309 i know, i have both 😅

We crank amp all the time in my studio ; )

Shred Shed how do you not have hearing loss, even with protection

I bought this gem off craigslist. It's the right tool for certain jobs.

Honestly, I haven't played anything that sounds or feels or sounds like a Model T. It's in a league of it's own.

It was guitar straight in, no pedals. The pickup set was the SD Sentient and Nazgul. The Clean channel sounds like it has as much gain as the 2nd channel, but it less compressed and brighter. I appreciate the kind words man, Cheers!

Thanks for the reply. Yeah it's crazy how you can get some nice breakup on that Clean channel. It does clean up nicely with the guitar volume knob too. Keep up the good work!

how about fuzz into that head?

Super Reverb is a killer amp. Is it a brand new one or an older or vintage model? with a new one it's likely going to be a little brighter so I would dial the top end back just a bit so it's not harsh. Also, a 10" speaker is typically brighter and smaller sounding so I would try different mic placement options. I would try the outside of the speaker cone, or a few feet out in front of the amp capturing all of the speakers with one mic. You will get more "room" sound and reflection that way, but it should mitigate some of the ultra high end frequencies. Cheers!

Dude thank you SO much...Ya it's actually a vintage one.

I am with you! I have a 73 twin reverb with the master volume and I am trying to get some hardcore sounds. I know this was a few months ago, but did you ever achieve a sound that you wanted?

We we're just messing around. We happened to have an Acapulco gold lyin' around so we thought, why not do a little comparison between the 2? Our intention originally was just to do a Play through of the model t though. Glad you dig it!

Fresh af my friend ; )

Nothing like playing through a dimed Sunn...great therapy.

The pedal was in the effects loop

@@ShredShed thanks, just ordered mine yesterday. This video sold me!

Something I made up

Either A or B, don't really remeber

They would have to get to you first.

@@MrScrofulous underrated comment

This was a reissue. I got this one for around a grand locally, killer deal. I'd say if you can find one in good shape for 1250 grab it!

I wrote that one : )

@@ShredShed That's a good one, man!

We ran the Acapulco gold straight into the power section of the rockerverb through the effects loop.

It's great for everything heavy. Doom, hardcore, metal, post rock. tons of killer tones.

love the channel's name man , which I was good at finding catchy names like that lol check my channel dude, u might like DOOM ON

Same, post-hardcore sludgedoom is a genre I think we all want to happen but hasnt yet, and we'll probably be a part of the wave when it does. Man, it's such a good combo. Black Sheep Wall does it slightly but they really remain on full throttle most of the time, but they have their post hardcore mixed with dronedoom cleanish sections and chord progressions (check no matter where it ends)

If you want hardcore with a model T check out easy action with John brannon, their lead guitarist uses a sunn live and it's phenomenal

Awesome metal amp too

This amp does sound good. That's why we made the video and that's all we care about. it was fun and it sounds good. If you want to purchase an original model t for a crazy inflated price and and make a video about it your welcome to do so.

I felt like making a video, so I did. You don't need to understand it, right? the world doesnt revolve around you my friend.

if i thought that the world is revolving around me i would have say "this comparison does not make sense" i just said that I PERSONALLY don't understant it. :D cool down bro @@ShredShed

Says "model t" on the front and it FUCKING RIPS...

@@ShredShed The reissue has a completely different architecture and is made by different people (fender). No matter how good it sounds, it's not a model T.

@@eternalvoid2678 I'd say you are right but the reissue are great with the right pedal. I have been comparing my vintage's sound with people's on RU-vid and even though I play faster than most they still don't have the sound I get.
