Scott Henderson Discussion

This may be happening among non-professionals, but most of the people I know making albums are still using tube amps and analog pedals. I sure am.

The amp modelers I've heard are a sad-ass replacem ...

I'm not a fan of the Ox - there are IR's out there, especially the ones made by York Audio, which are far superior. In fact, IR's made by any other company are pretty lame compared to York. With the S ...

I tried the Hombre with a 4x12 - if the guitar tone is all the way up it sounds pretty good, but that rock 'n roll tone doesn't work for me. I'm looking for a less fizzy, rounder tone that still has a ...

To be honest, I'm not the right guy to ask. I've had no luck at all with low wattage amps, but I haven't tried many of them. I had a Suhr Badger, but that's a class A amp and I like class A/B amps muc ...

There's a live version of Jakarta on the Scott Henderson Live! album. Spears and Reality Check are owned by labels, so it's up to them whether to stream them or not. Most of the labels I made music fo ...

Thanks! I was in a little souvenir shop in Jakarta and I heard a melody playing on the PA. The shop owner told me it was a traditional Indonesian melody, and one of the local musicians told me it was ...

I have problems with that in loud, boomy rooms. For me, it usually happens when the sub-woofers are under the stage (what a fucking awful idea). Standing further away from the amp can help, but there' ...

The exact treble bleed that's in my guitars has been in my signature model for the last two years. I'm glad they finally solved what I consider to be a major problem with guitars. Some people like the ...

No, not since the Well To The Bone album. 11's are great for blues but I find them a bit woofy sounding for the music I'm playing now. 10's seem to work better for everything, and tuning down can be a ...

Yes, two 16 ohm speakers to make the cabinet run at 8 ohms.

Hi Tommy,

I don't know what kind of a bleed you used but if it wasn't the one wired up by Suhr, I'm sure it sounds terrible. I used a traditional trouble bleed one time and I took it out immediatel ...

Thanks Thanasis! That's just the RC Booster on the melody, but I'm picking really close to the bridge which gives it a more sitar-like tone. I could get even closer to a sitar if I used the Octavia, b ...

I don't have much experience using different cabinets and different speakers - I'm a big fan of Greenbacks and I don't like much else. I've used a 4x12 for such a long time, I don't really know what a ...

The SH9/ SD-9 don't fit the kind of music I'm playing on the road, which is more about dynamics than the very compressed sound those type of pedals produce. They're great for legato playing, but they ...

I haven't seen this one but I'm sure it's cool. The AnalogMan chorus is also really nice. I'm sticking with my Arion chorus just because I'm used to the sound, but there are some great chorus pedals o ...
