Here's me just playing around on my Quad for a bit. Using a microcab to record direct.

That is very thick, but very clear.  Heavy Duty! I like the original sounding riffing, too.  The stop-starts really show the pig's tight bass response>  What kind of guitar is it?

I like the tone, it's clear, and well recorded, without clipping. It'd be cool to hear a bit more going on though like bass guitar, or a synth arpeggio. I got a bit lost near the end, still the guitar sound is sound.

I had just got my Microcab in when I recorded this. I'm still setting up the rest of my gear to record full songs.

I just realized the pots on my SG were 300k. After emailing Tim he said the warpig works best with at least 500k and even better with a 1meg volume pot. So I'm probably losing alot of output and high end as it is. I'll record some more clips once I have it rewired. I'm gonna try 1meg and 2meg pots and see which I like best.
