Overloud SuperCabinet Library: TAF Blue
IR Library for SuperCabinet
TAF Supercab IR Library created by capturing a Vox AC30 65/66 with Celestion Blue Pre-Rola speakers.
"This speaker is and was the main reason why I went into producing my own IRs. "Blue" speakers have their own sound, but this one, in particular, has its VERY own character, not like any other. Its softer, more gentle, unless you poke it, and it becomes unfriendly but in an adorable way!. If someone asked me what is the pinnacle of guitar tones, I’d always refer to this speaker. It's what always comes to mind when thinking of any guitar-based sound. It will never age, it will never die. And best of all, it's now eternally captured." - Andy (TheAmpFactory)
This amp & its speaker was in Abbey Road Studios, and the special thing is that this was one of the amps used for many of the Beatles recordings. To this day, the amp lives on, still in its original format, with no problems thus far!
