VINTAGE MEETS DIGITAL
We decided to make our vintage amp collection available to Kemper users.
Our goal was to capture these profiles in a proper vintage setting with “real” Neve preamps, multiple high-end microphones and the expertise of an engineer who knows the nuances of each amp.
In Spring 2020, Lucky Lady Vintage Guitars teamed up with renowned audio engineer Jason Frankhouser (Bob Dylan) and we created Volume 1 of Lucky Lady’s Kemper profiles at Austin’s legendary Arlyn Studios (Willie Nelson, Ray Charles, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Les Paul, etc).
Volume 1 features 7 iconic vintage amps from our permanent collection, including Fender and Marshall amps from the 1950s and 1960s (The “Golden Era”).
