Can pro guitarists Jason Lewis and Chris Leslie tell the difference between a Kemper profile of a tone that they dialed in themselves on a Marshall JCM2000? Can you? I'll put the text up on screen so you'll know what's going on the whole time, but when we filmed this, Jason and Chris did could not see which one they were playing. #guitar #guitarist

Absolutely. What bass amps should we shoot out?

@KoffyGG 8 ай бұрын

I mean, the obvious debate on emulatio of tubes not feeling/sounding like the real thing. So maybe an Ampeg B-15 or the SVT-CL head. Even the SGT-DI could enter the shootout. @@deadbeatstudios

@@deadbeatstudiosFor bass, how about a GK and a Mesa Bass 400+ or any SVT really.

Please do many more of these Kemper AB tests. Most of the ones online are from when the Kemper first came out. But that was before a lot of Kemper improvements.

Yes keep them coming. The amps I love are voxes and plexis. That's it 😊.

Would be great with ToneX comparison

Great comparisons, - as a suggestion, would be great to hear how people react to the tones coming through a guitar cab, rather than the mixing desk/phones - i.e., how close do the modelers get in a "live" situation. I hate it when people talk about "amp in the room" blah blah blah... but I use Kemper primarily as a live tool these days. It still won't replace my deluxe reverb, but curious to see how others perceive the "live" tones in Kemper vs. the real thing... P.S. - just did a shootout of Kemper vs. FM9 vs. TMP, and to my ears Kemper still has the most real sound and feel thru a guitar cab (although the others are not far off).

I'd like to see a Peavey Valveking 100 contrasted against either the JCM 800, 900 or DSL100H. I own a VK myself and believe it comes very close to the tone of a Marshall with the bass lowered at about quarter with presence and resonance adjusted. There literally no videos KZfaq which makes the comparison, there's only one old video of a VK 112 combo against a Marshall Haze.

What's next, a plastic toy guitar ? You could plug in a cheap $100 guitar into a profile amp, and it would sound the same as if you plugged in Jimmy Page's '59 Les Paul. A profile amp loses all the resonance, sustain, feedback, tone, or lack of such, from the hardware. It eliminates the instrument quality from the equation. So a Stratavarius violin would sound same as kid's Playskool toy violin. Nobody with a good ear will take you seriously, playing through a profiler amp. It's been described as sounding like a swarm of bees.
