I thought Nashville was the roughest, but I know I’ve said the same about them all.

Thanks Mark; there’s a word document attached to the profiles, if it has a 12 it’s an Eminence PF-350 speaker in a Little Walter cabinet, it it has a 15 it’s an Eminence PF-400 speaker in a Little Walter cabinet. BW is a Black Widow which you’ll notice the Webb profile has etc. LW refers to Little Walter PF89 head. Hope this helps!

Many thanks, Mike. I have been happily using Mr Britt's assorted Fenders that came with the unit but these really expand the palette. Beautiful stuff!!

Hey Mike,
Thanks for the profiles.
Just curious what pickups you used to make the profiles. I find that the profiles react differently to the different picks of the guitars I have.

I used a Franklin D-10 with Bill Lawrence 710 pickups making these profiles. Every guitar responds differently but you can tweak the input or output on the Kemper to control the sensitivity, hope you find something that’s usable for you.

Looking a getting into one of these. I would be curious to hear sound sample of these profile you have made. I hear lots 6 string stuff but nothing on YouTube for steel.

I don’t have a YouTube channel so I can’t demonstrate any sounds for you, perhaps someone else on here can be helpful. I will say if you’ve heard guitar profiles and liked them, the pedal steel profiles are just as good. If you have a guitar player friend who owns one, ask them to download these sounds and let you try them with your steel.

Do you have to have a guitar hooked up to profile an amp? I thought you wanted the pure amp profile with guitar attached.

Good question, don’t know if you have to but we always did and the volume pedal was on full to pass the signal through the tone pots but I suppose you could just plug the guitar straight in without the volume pedal also.
