I'm still confused about how should sound the clean guitar recorded.
Guitar Recording ( Clean ) - Wich one of this 2 samples is well recorded ?

ummm...it depends on what you are looking for. sample 1 sounds much better to me. more up front and clear. sample 2 sounds like it is coming from an old radio. you might get something interesting by blending the two sounds.

I would agree with scrubs in regards to what sounds best.
But, both are clean sounding. They just seem to be eq'd differently, the later being more bassy, and the first being more crisp and clean.

Honestly, they both sound good. Wonder how they would sound with one panned hard left and the other right? Maybe just a touch of delay in the second one....

Totally depends on the sound you are going for. The first sounds more "true" and the second does have that "radio" sound that was mentioned above.

well, i mean in terms of putting that signal into a distortion box.
think for a second that your going to put that signal into a distortion box. let's say a deftones type of thing. ( i mean a distortion about that heavy, i'm not looking for that tone ).
anyway.
you think it's a good source ?
wich one is a better source, for retreat ?
it that signal, ok ?
what it needs before go through a pedal ?
i'm confused you know, most clean recorded guitars sounds very similar, but my clean recordings doesn't sound like that. So maybe you guys think is ok, but i don't know, maybe i'm missing something.

The first one definitely sounds cleaner, the second sounds a bit muffled. If you're going to be adding any effects to it I would use the first one. The second one works if that's the sound you're going for, but if you're looking to add to it I think the first track will give you more room to work with. As far as to how the clean guitar "should" sound, it should sound how you want it to for the type of music you're recording - both of those recordings are good, it just depends on what you want to do with them.

ok, maybe i didn't explain my self right.
on the net, you can find tons of clean guitar recordings to play with any Amp Modelers.
SO... al the sounds that i've found, has something in common. They don't sound all the same, but they have something in common. I can't match any of those sounds, because, of course i don't know how they are recording guitars.
But something is for sure. when you put that signals into an amp modelers, the sound is just wonderful.
so... i've been trying to match my sound with some of that samples, and i still can't get tha rich sound.
so... that's where my doubts come from.
my type of music doesn't matter, i mean, a plain guitar, should sound in a certain way, and i don't know it yet.
fu#k, my english suc#s. Sorry about that.

That is absolutely untrue. There is no such thing as a "plain guitar" sound. The combination of guitar build (wood, neck, etc.), pickups, strings, cable, amp, room, and PLAYER all contribute to the sound (and there are many more factors). A clean Telecaster sounds nothing like a clean Les Paul, which sounds nothing like a clean PRS, and so on.
So, it is absolutely critical to know what equipment you have and what you want it to sound like. Amp modelers can approximate sounds, but they are not magic.
Even with amp modelers, my tele will never be a good guitar for speed metal. It just doesn't have "that" sound.I am guessing that the manufacturers of the modeling amps supply samples of high-dollar guitars recorded with high-dollar equipment that will translate well on the most common presets, but I can't say for sure what they are using.
Happy recording in the new year.
