What the hell kind of unkempt women are you messing with that would necessitate you carrying around a P trimmer? Especially one that needs amplification and goes all the way to 9.
Well, my beard trimmer only goes to 6 and that is a good inch to an inch and a half of hair growth. I see by the picture that you have recently dealt with a level 8.The reason it only goes to 9 is because there is no perfect 10...

Did you build it or have someone build it?
I have been eyeing a handwired boutique amp for a while now. Something like a Matchless or Badcat. I just can't see dropping that kind of money on something I use to gig in bars and private parties.
What kind of pedals are you running? Got a pedalboard shot?
That's kind of expensive for a DIY, especially when I can go to Guitar Center and get a Marshall half stack for $500.
It kinda is. Half of your tone is your right hand technique, the other half is a combo of your equipment which I have always thought of as 4 parts equal (guitar-effects-amp-speakers). I can't justify that amount of money for an item that constitutes 25% of 50% of my signature sound.
For that price, I would get a Line6 and make it sound like anything I want.
Not giving you crap, if you like it you like it, I'm just saying I wouldn't do it.
Recording with a live amp is almost unnecessary these day though. There are so many digital options available pre and post production, you can just plug in a guitar straight to a computer and do everything else in there. Plenty of major releases are done this way.Don't do it! lol. Because of being hand-wired, after about 40 hours, it will "break-in" and the tone gets even more nasty. I did not want pre-boxed sound. Also, Line 6 has nothing on a real tube-amp, especially in recording using high-end mics. Modulation is typically at 44.1 or 48 and when recording at 48 or higher, the digitization of the sound becomes apparent. I use 2-amps with 4 different mics and blend a classic solid-state in the mix for more high-end definition. I'm going to use good, AUTHENTIC tone with something made specifically for me. That is why I chose the Ceriatone. I was already familiar with them.
It's like my jeep! I could have just settled with how it came stock...still bad-ass, but no...I spent money to make it my own.

I can't wait to hear it though.
Dude, at any level, you can use digital amps. Forget about metal music, most if not all top 40 albums in the last 5-10 years were recorded without any real amps. Some of them don't even have real instruments, period. It all came out of a keyboard. I hate it, but it's a reality of the industry, and just economics overall: how much is this going to cost me and how long is it going to take vs how much money I'm going to make out of it.You are correct if you have a home studio and not trying to record other people. I am working with pro-audio, with a 25-year veteran producer that worked with major artists. Yes, you need to use really good mics and real amps for creating good sound. We did on the album you are appearing on. Plenty of studios use real-amps, analog recording (like my Apollo Quad which is tube-based). Pro-engineers CAN tell a difference especially when working with higher sample rates. Digital amps produce a totally different sound wave...more squared as opposed to the natural analog "curve" from tubes which translates better in recording when adding layers of effects or compression.
Meshuggah refuses to use modular or digital amps for example. Lamb of God also, Down, I can list many...it is all preference. LIVE? You can use anything.

Yeah, if you have the time and the budget, you go all out but both you and I know that the average listener is stupid and dumb and won't be able to tell a difference between a Triple Rectifier, and Orange and a DOD Amp Simulator.
Regardless, just let me test it when I'm there, ok?
Dude, you're acting as if a) I'm telling you you're wrong about something and b) like I don't know what I'm talking about.I am not worried about cost if music is my life and I want a pro-audio sound. If people are passive about music, or don't want to spend the money, there are good sounding alternatives. I don't dispute it. I'm doing WHAT I LEARNED from an industry veteran responsible for some of the best sounding, critically-acclaimed albums and saw the proof in the pudding. It is the reason why the album you are featured on will be an international release. If I want it to sound real? I use real amps, for real mics for real sound. Welcome to shoot our producer an email and he can explain it all to you...you have his email.
Kinky...This thread started out cool, got really nerdy, then a little bro-fisty. Weird.
First rule of test jam is, you don't talk about test jam.What is this "test jam" you are referring to?
