Her "what do you think about buying a boat or van that we could stay overnight in once in a while?"
Me: "Hmm, if I follow my motto Semper Simplify, I'd ask why would we want to buy an expensive camper van or a live-aboard boat? Why not use that money on Airbnbs and motel rooms for the rest of our lives and forget the boat and camper hassle?"
A Samplifier is a digital electronic device, also known as a "modeling" or "profiling" amp, for use with electric guitars and other electronic instruments. It samples and learns the characteristics of an actual instrument amplifier, which can then be saved for future use as well as transferred to other similar devices. The amplifier can then be used in place of the amplifier from which the sample was taken.
The samplifiers on the market today are getting quite good, but there are many who feel that they can't quite capture the sound of a real vacuum tube (valve) amplifier.
