Hello everyone,
I'm seriously, possibly, undoubtedly almost sure that I am going to purchase one of these fine Kemper units and had a couple questions:
Here's my situation:
I'm 56 and play at home exclusively and mostly at low volumes through either my Mesa Boogie Electra-Dyne or my 1966 Ampeg Reverberocket (both great amps). Naturally it's hard to get the best tone out of these at low volumes (especially the 90 watt Electra-Dyne). I also have a Fender Blues JR 1st edition (USA) that I rarely use.
I have a Focusrite Saffire 6 USB and a pair of JBL LSR 305 monitors and was wondering if this would be a good setup for the Kemper and would I be able to achieve good tone?
Also, at 56, will I be able to figure out the unit without spending more time tweaking than playing? Should I get the remote footswitch? I'm thinking it would be nice to have the presets once I figure out the tweaking for whatever mood I'm in! Finally, is there anything else I would need for my setup (as described above)?
I was also considering a Line 6 Helix but am leaning more toward the Kemper. Honestly, one reason is I was stationed in Regensburg, Germany in the Army ('84-'85) and consider Germany my second home... just loved it there!!!
Thanks so much in advance and God Bless!
