guitar reamping box

[petemoore]

  Get his guitar signal into a splitter-buffer box, first thing.
  Then grab your sample from right there at all times.
  Do a sample recording if they wanna pay for junk, of the big amp cranked in smallish room [and all the associated wallbouncings / reverbia]..
  Otherwise work with the clean pickup signal output, show what a sample of that can do [should be pretty dern good, I tried some CD quality samples into a tube amp...sounds like a dude playin' my guitar through my amp to me.
  Not to say working with dude extensively [outdoors ? smaller amp ?] testing micing conditions can't make fine old style recordings...presenting a microphone into a room with amazing bounce levels [near surface reflections] or even totally dampened down [sound soaker room, can't hear anything except the initial wave]...pretty much limits the ability to experiment with what it'd take to expose up "the tape" to preferred sources.
