Hello Folks!
Perhaps I am missing something here, but I never ever heard a tube amp sounding great through a traditional cabinet. Not sure why! There is always something missing to make it sound "genuine".
Last week, I attended a small gig in a club, and the guitar player there was playing few a mid size tube amp that was mic'ed to 15" monitors...Oh my God! The overall sound has much more "genuine" feeling than turning any tube amp as loud as that!!!! The effects are shining and filling the whole club in all dimensions....The distortion is very clear and you can hear the strings when chords are hit!
My question is: Why the hell guitar players don't mic their tube amps...even their Solid-state amps always anywhere? Aren't they missing the 'genuine' sound that we hear in concerts by Metallica, Dream Theater, Accept, etc....?
