The new Jazz Suprema Archtop Guitar Amp from Rivera Amplification is an amazing all-tube amplifier for jazz guitar. There are many features that allow you to adjust your tone to fit the archtop. There is a mid notch to cut out low-mid frequencies to change your tone. This control is great because it eliminates feedback issues archtops typically have with tube amps. There is a focus control that allows you to tighten the speaker or to let it breath - great for adjusting your tone according the room you are playing in. The Jazz Suprema is a fantastic choice for Jazz players who want control over their tone and get the warmth and color of a tube amp. This amp is only available at Sound Pure, please call us today for more information.

What we think:


A modern and historic favorite among ribbon microphones, the Coles 4038 is still manufactured with the same quality that it has been manufactured with for 40 years. Characterized by it's incredibly smooth sound reproduction, the 4038 has become a massive favorite with famous recording engineers for everything from rock and roll applications like drum overheads, and electric guitars, to jazz applications including brass and upright bass, to classical orchestral applications. It is one hell of a great sounding and versatile classic ribbon mic. The microphones ship with their foam lined hard-plastic case, the XLR/standmount adapter, and the velet "Crown-Royal" style microphone bag. Most buy these in factory pairs, so be sure and consider that option.

 

Description:


The 4038 Studio Ribbon Microphone is of British Broadcasting design (BBC) and used for broadcasting and recording such sounds where a clear smooth wide range frequency response, absent of transient distortion and relatively high sensitivity is essential.

The 4038 has a proven reliable performance capability, being since its introduction, used by broadcasting networks throughout the world such as the BBC.

The frequency response of the 4038 is exceptionally flat from 30 to 15,000 c/s and throughout this range the shape of the bi-directional (figure of eight) polar response is maintained substantially constant both in the horizontal and vertical planes, giving a natural smooth sonic quality textured response to sound signal being picked up.

Studio microphones have now achieved a remarkable fidelity of reproduction. If the microphone is not close to perfection, there is no point in having expensive systems to take the sound the rest of the way to the audience's ears.

In the world of sound, the BBC has always been the leader, and is still regarded as the 'setter of standards'.
