The new Jake Bowen signature model that Ibanez revealed at NAMM is giving me serious GAS. I've always been a huge fan of the rga shape. The fixed bridge, ebony fretboard, and 27 frets... I think I'm in love

Just an FYI that there is one day left to get softube's celestion speaker shaper cab sim for $39.
A very unique and interesting solution. It might suffer a bit from hyper-realism, where it sounds
too pristine to be real, also some odd bits with the mic sims i guess, but it's definitely worth checking out IMO. Of course it's ilok being from softube, if you don't mind that:
Use promo code CELESTION60 and get 60% OFF Celestion Speaker Shaper ($38)
Offer valid June 23rd—June 25th, 2022.

It looks worth a demo, I also need to check some cabs for Acustica N4 using an amp and load box.

It sounds good imo, and no ir packs to buy. The celestion models are already in it, unlike it with the Celestion SMP, not buggy like it either. The SMP probably is more accurate with its actual IRs, but this is not far off and way cheaper at $39.The Noodlist wrote: Fri Jun 24, 2022 7:20 pmIt appears to be available for Amp Room which is on sale at PB @ £67.84pekbro wrote: Fri Jun 24, 2022 6:06 pm Just an FYI that there is one day left to get softube's celestion speaker shaper cab sim for $39.

FYI: Celestion SMP and DSR sale going on now... Arguably the reigning king of the IR loaders.

Seems, I bought the Celestion Speaker Mix plugin and half of their dynamic cab sims,
Tho expensive, vs the rest of the IR solutions that I've tried, this one has the best
sound pretty much.

Hofner Verythin CT Standard

Red one - initially very happy ! The shop did a magnificent job of set-up. Completely different tone than my solid-bodies that's impossible to describe(& I hate reading someone's words like rounder, more defined, etc). What I can tell is that cleans are terrific and hi-gain is prolly better handled by Mr Parker or Strat. Exactly the semi-hollow midrange freqs that I was hoping for !
Cheers
