Here's a vid I did today to showcase the different tones of my 3 amps, as well as the Torpedo Live.

In my own opinion all 3 sound great, but it's a matter of taste. Love how easy these clips are when using the Torpedo, what a great unit!

Enjoy, comments more than welcome!





EDIT:
here is the audio with the guitars mixed louder to the front, as demanded by some folks (order is changed on this one, sorry):

They all sounded very similar to me. Could you hit a couple chords with no backing track?

From what I could hear though, I could use anyone of those.
 
Cornford sounds best to my ears. Friedman comes in at a very close #2. Pay no attention to my avatar...:D
 
Friedman sounds the best to my ears seems to be a tad more meat to it although they all sound good!

yes, no backing track please
 
All sounded good. I thought the Friedman sounded best, a little thicker sounding which appeals to me. Cornford seemed a hair more quiet in the mix so I had a hard time getting a good feel for it. JMP was a bit bitey on the top end for me, but most Marshalls are to me.

Interesting. Decibel wise they were all exactly the same volume (all normalised to 0dB and the channel fader unchanged for each clip). So I guess what you hear is maybe the Cornford getting lost in the mix a bit more because it's 6L6 instead of EL34 like the other two. Maybe I should have dimed those mids.
 
What IR were you using in the TwoNotes?? Sounded awesome - but ya, the Marshall ruled in the context of that song anyway.

EDIT: Just looked at your notes on YT, 2x12 Greenbacks - with mic and settings, thank you :salute:
 
Marshall, Friedman, Cornford
They all sounded great...but that's the order my ears prefer.
 
I prefer the chording tone of the Friedman. Play that through my RK100... Oh my! :shocked:
 
All were really good.

I'm a Cornford fanboy, and have never cared for anything Friedman.

But, got to admit the Friedman was the clear winner for that tune. No suprise, as that's what Jerry is using.
 
I'll do some clean, some heavy 80s rhythm and some lead clips in the same style later this week or next week, let's see.
 
The Cornford sounded very cool, the FM a bit "neutral" (not in a bad way though) - and a shame you had to step on that OCD thing :D
 
Friedman, JMP, Cornford in that order.

The BE-100 cops AIC without even trying hard ... :thumbsup:
