Hi! This is neither a demo nor a tutorial, this is just me working livr on my improv skills over some backing tracks. So you are right, there is no real structure, but I’m open to suggestions if you have ideas! The 7 strings acoustic guitar appears for only a few minutes towards the beginning, but I am going to include it more later.

@@guitarinsitu ok.. thanks for the reply.. look forward to some acoustic playing soon.. greetings from India :)

@user-my9kj6gq5v thank you! I shall use it more, then!

Bonjour, Malheureusement je n’en sais rien. J’imagine que le SAV de Positive Grid pourrait peut-être vous aider… Qui plus est, je ne suis pas au courant des éventuelles nouveautés sur ce produit depuis la sortie de cette vidéo, donc je ne suis pas le mieux placé pour vous renseigner.

Avec plaisir ! :)

Hello ! I’m sorry but I don’t understand your question… Arr you refering to something I said in this video?

Busted

Sori eubaoute zate…

Œuf corse.

The perception of quality is subjective anyway. But I’m glad you like it!

I bought my AE38 in either '96 or '97... it still sounds and plays great. My headstock and electronic controls are completely different than the one in the video.

Sorry, I didn’t see your comment… what do you mean more precisely?

Thanks !

Thanks!

Avec plaisir ! Merci pour ce retour !

Merci pour ce message, ça fait plaisir ! :) Et content d'avoir pu te faire découvrir des choses !

C'est une compo, mais sinon c'est juste des accords en position de A sans la corde de sol : Em, D, Bm, C et ensuite un Gadd9 et ça recommence !

I think so, yes !

Thanks !

Merci !

Hi ! Thanks for your comment ! I personnally use mostly one « clean » tube amp, which is a Dewitte Brut(e) Supercharged in which I plug my pedals, but I must say that in some circumstances the Spark can be a good option. I still have the one you can see in the video even though it is not mine (I don’t own one) and I use it with my students, because it is a nice and very practical little amp. I would say that for the price there is not much competition in the « real » amps relm, so if this is your budget, go for it. If however you can put a little more money in an amp, well… I’m sorry to say that but I have no recommandations to make… You could check for little Fender, Peavey, Vox or Laney, in the AC series kind of amps, but all I can push you toward is to get out and try out all the amps you can with the pedals and guitars you already have and make your own mind about them. Whatever sounds good to you should be what you should get, in my opinion. Don’t be afraid to buy used too, because it is most likely that the next amp you’ll buy will not be your last. I think that you have to own a piece of gear for a certain time before you can really know if it is for you or not, so buy whatever sounds good to you, play it for a while, keep testing all the gear you can find, sell, buy again, and try to make the best out of what you have, like you did with your Line6. By the way, the gear Line6 currently makes is a lot better than what they did 10 years ago. Sorry that I can not tell you what amp to buy, I know it would be easier, but I hope that my answer will be useful to you in a way. Have a good one !

@@guitarinsitu thank you for your in-depth reply. I will consider the Spark as my practice amp, for the convenience of ad hoc jamming, the coolness of chords generation, ease of modifying and storing various sounds thanks to the digital processor / engine. after giving it a thought, I think for this price it is well worth it. on the other hand, imagine that I worked out my favourite sound and composed my own humble song using Spark, then I am ready to play it out loud, and boom, I need to "reproduce" my favourite sound using different hardware / technology. this makes me lean towards buying a beefy clean amp right away, and skip Spark altogether. any thoughts on Mesa Boogie Mark V? someone recommended this amp to me. I'll check it out in my local music store this week, as they have stock. it is expensive, but if I use it for 10 years, it will be justified. would you look into combo amp or separate floor and top piece? sorry if I'm not using the proper industry vocabulary, because I am new to all this. starting my guitar learning journey at the age of 50. I did play some camp fire chords 10 years ago. this time I am doing it "properly", learning notes, fretboard, scales, and also improvising to backtracks in various keys. I'm truly enjoying the progression and fun related to it.

@@TigerCarpenter I think that there is a use for the kind of amps that includes the Spark, but if you'd want to make an album then it would not be adequate. However, I don't think that finding your sound in a studio with the help of a professional producer would be a problem, and you would probably not have to buy anything since most studios have a few amps to offer. That said, the Mark V is a fantastic amp, in the combo or head configuration, so if you don't need the features of the Spark and you have the budget for the Mesa, go for it. This is the kind of amp that is good for pretty much anything and that you can sell pretty easilly if you find another amp that suits your needs better. You should give it a try in the store anyway, and see if you like it !

@@guitarinsitu thanks a lot for your advice! since I'm new to all this, I listened to my gut, and I bought Mooer GE200, and now waiting for the delivery. I hope it allows me to find my desired sounds, and record my own music. I will eventually save up for the beefy amp+cab, once I am more familiar with this market. I hope I made the right call to start my journey.

@@TigerCarpenter Good for you ! I don't think that we learn by making mistakes, so don't be afraid of making some !

I think on this video it was John Pearse 12-53 plus a Daddario 70 for the low B, phosphor-bronze. Since then, I switched to full bronze strings, it suits this guitar better.

@@guitarinsitu thanks! I had previously used D’Addario EXP phosphor bronze. Tone was ok, but wished they lasted as long as Elixirs.

The John Pearse strings are not coated, so they won’t last as long as the Elixir, but you should give them a try, they sound amazing (that is my opinion anyway)

@@guitarinsitu what gauge are you using? I see that Elixir is now offering a 0.070, which is what I was using with D’Addario

@@spade2you I am using 12-53 + 70. I've been trying to order 70s from Elixir for about a year now, but they never came...

Thank you :)

Thanks !

Bonjour ! L'accès au cloud est gratuit ! Il est possible de désactiver tous les effets et même la simulation d'ampli, si c'est ça ta question... Donc il doit être possible d'utiliser le Spark juste pour amplifier un pedalboard, il n'y a pas de raison. Par contre, la très légère latence (que l'on retrouve sur n'importe quel système à émulation) restera et se cumulera à celle du pédalier, et j'imagine que ça risque de devenir gênant, mais peut-être pas pour tout le monde ! Merci pour ton commentaire. ;)

Hi ! The knobs can be in any position you want. They will only affect the settings if you touch them, like on most (if not every) emulation based amps.

To much bass sound from the amp for me, unusual for small speakers.

Bonjour et merci pour le commentaire. Si tu cherches un ampli de ce type alors je peux te le recommander, je n’ai personnellement pas eu de problèmes avec, mais je n’ai pas eu l’occasion de comparer plus que ça avec la concurrence. Par rapport à un Yamaha que j’ai testé (je ne me souviens pas du modèle précis) je dirais que le son est équivalent, en tout cas, mais encore une fois, je n’ai pas eu les deux en même temps pour comparer.

My pleasure !

Thanks ! I don’t think there is one, but please let me know if you find something

J’ai rien dit, moi !

I’ve only used it in my studio, and I never thought that there was too much bass. Maybe it is a matter of resonance, depending of the quality of the reverb in the room in which some people play, I don’t know, but for me, no problem. What I’ve seen the most in the comments is a hum problem caused by a power supply issue, but I didn’t have this issue either.

@@guitarinsitu thank you very much for your reply. Yes, I saw that some people have that problem with the hum, but that, from what I get as already been solved with the newest amps being shipped already with the grounded power supply.

Nice !

Yes, to much bass for my ears.

Pretty sure you can search ANY artist and if anyone created their sounds, they will be there in the user cloud
