What Amp Are You Playing Today?

Crab Marcus tonight

Doing a “supergroup” gig tomorrow under the name “Crab Pit” and @JiveTurkey pointed out it would be foolish to use anything other than the crab


Had the one and only rehearsal tonight and used it and it sounded killer

Maiden crab voyage tomorrow!!

Dual BluGuitars today!

• Amp 1 Iridium Edition Classic ch -> Bluetone 4x10 (10" Greenbacks) -> Shure SM57
• Amp 1 Mercury Edition Classich ch -> Mesa Mark V 90 combo (Celestion C90) -> Austrian Audio OC16

Sounds crushing in the room, and the looser, rawer, sizzlier Mercury complements the tighter Iridium pretty well.

I'm so tempted to pick up an Iridium. In addition to many other uses I think it would make a great portable backup amp.

But having just picked up a Catalyst and a Tone King Imperial Preamp I'm feeling like I need to dial it back on gear expenditures, Still, I've been looking at the Iridium for a while now and when that happens I usually end up eventually taking the plunge.

I wish I had picked one up earlier. I tried one like two times at different occasions and never liked it for some reason, but maybe I was just trying to dial it how I use the Mercury and that doesn't quite work the same.

It's a lovely amp for rock/metal. Still don't love the Modern channel on either Amp 1 really, but the other channels are all great.

The line out makes it also really easy to record since you can disable the analog cab sim and use IRs, which you can't do on the Mercury unfortunately. The analog cab sim is fine, but really more of a "give it to FOH" type deal than "I'm going to make my new album with this".
