Hey Sixto, Welcome.

Nice work, Six. The clips sound great.

How did you record the clips? Specifically, what mic and placement on the speaker?

 

[Elpelotero]

nice licks! you got a great vintage blues style! i liked the raw sound a lot..what are those settings? i have a bit of hard time getting a blues sound like that.

^I really like the channel 2 tones also....that is the only channel I haven't been able to dial in properly yet....what are your settings?

 

[Sixto]

Hey guys. Thanks for the comments. I used a Fender American Deluxe Stratocaster with two single coils and a humbucker. On all three modes, my settings were:

Presence - 2:00, Bass - 10:00, Mid - 11:00, Treble - 2:30, Gain - 2:00

My recording setup was Guitar > Head > LoadBox (dummy load, cab not used), Direct Out from LoadBox to Mackie Onyx FireWire DAW and I used the Mesa Cab in GuitarRig 2. The acoustics cause massive low-end feedback when I crank my head and cab, so I went the direct route.

Really great blues sound u got there. Nice clips good demo of the amp and ur skills.

Good stuff man, great sound out of it for being direct. Nice chops as well. I really digged that Bluesy RAW sound. I'm glad they added that to these amps, opens up a whole other side of the beast!

That's the Koch LoadBox? Nice!

Just a quick question > If the LoadBox provides a speaker simulated tone why did you need to run the signal into GuitarRig?

 

[Sixto]

The Guitar Rig cabs and mics sound better than what's on the Koch, in my opinion. :wink:

Hey what is that finish on the SG? That thing looks nice....

 

[MesaENGR412]

looks like the natural burst that used to be available on the SG Standards. The lead singer/Guitarist from Thrice used to play one.
