Nice guitar dude...I really don't care for P90 p'ups myself though....I mean, they're cool, in between a single coil & humbucker, can get some pretty cool tones, but I'm either a humbucker or single coil guy myself...lol...
Ok, here's a few clips of the Chupacabra pretty much cranked up...I was sitting right in front of the amp/cab, so I turned the master back just a hair so it wouldn't feedback so bad....Awesome amp guys, I fuckin' love it, & can't wait to get my new speakers for the 4x12, should be righteous....
I did adjust the gain on a couple of 'em in plexi mode, when I centered the bright switch, it cut the gain way back, so I turned it up with gain 2....So many possibilities with this fucker, I still can't believe how good this thing sounds in person....I couldn't use the condensor with this much volume, it clips the fuck out of it, it can't handle the high SPL like the '57 (when close-mic'ing, the mic actually clips with the master on about 2-3), so all these clips are with a single mic....And like the last clips, I added some 'verb in the daw (same 'verb, same everything really....lol)....
I used the neck p'up on some of these in spots, so if it sounds muddy, that's why....I'd never really bonded with the neck p'up in my Lester until today, it's got a really sweet sound with the Chupacabra when it's cranked up....Lovin' the Chupa!!!

Lemme know what you guys think about the Chupa with the master pretty much cranked, I will say the sweet spot on the volume for this amp is around 7 1/2 - 8, it really starts to open up around there....And, the more you crank it, the more it distorts, compresses & "sings"....Fuckin' awesome amp, I'm so glad I got this thing, it's got "that" sound I'd been after for so long....
Got another date tonight, gonna go vaginia exploring in a few hours...
.
See you guys after while....
