Hi All,
Well, I've been away for quite a while, but much happened since then.
I sold my Tech 21 Trademark 10 amp (good amp but too weak, and not very good clean sound).
I then bought a V-Amp 2 simply because someone had one cheap. NEVER buy that. I sold it after a week. This is really subpar Line 6 POD.
So after that, I thought that a tube amp was the only cure . I went to my favourite rental store, tried a couple of amps (never buy a Crate 30 tube amp - piece of crap). I rented a Traynor YCV40 (Guitar Player's Editor's Pick), and I am more and more amazed by this amp - and it's made in Canada, what can be cooler! It give you (almost) Fender clean and (almost) Marshall JMC800-type crunch. So I'm in heaven.
Problem is, I don't have a mic.... so I got my Behringer direct box with 4X12 cab simulator off the shelf... does it sounds good? Not so sure.
Problem is, my speaker are OK (a bit on the hip-hop-too-much-bass side) but my headphone are crappy, so that's why I'm asking you.
This is almost a poll. Do I keep the direct box or do I buy a mic? Suggestions are also welcome for a good quality mic at a fair price.
Please tell me. There's enough tone master here to have good advices, no?

This is a simple AC/DC like chord progression that is evolving (I now have a melody line for it that will change it dramatically), which I shortened just for the sake of doing a tone clip. Don't tell me this is soft porn stuff, I'll rip your head off
