Here are a few clips of the new cab. I miked up both speakers and panned them slightly. The blue dog is on the left and the greenback is on the right. These recordings were done on my Les Paul, primarily on the neck pickup. I rolled the highs up more than I usually would to play up the sparkly chime of this amp.

  1. sounds good! What mike are you using?

  2. I’m using an SM57 on the weber and an SM58 on the greenback. It’s all I had…

  3. a little cleaner sounding, but still sounds like your old setup. I might have to A/B some of the clips to hear the difference.

  4. nothing wrong with the Shures! Little know secret, the 57 and 58 are the same thing, just a different wind screen. 57 is really good for cabs.

  5. Nice tone. :) Props!

  6. [...] Broken Headstock–Philip’s blog. Philip has some great resources for guitar in a worship environment, and has really, really good tone. That is all you ever need know. Sweet tone here: http://brokenheadstock.com/?p=225 [...]

  7. Sounds good. The speakers will break in and warm up further as playing time passes. I like the simple and elegant look of the head on the cab.
