I don't mean to hijack the thread, but you've touched on a point that frustrates me. I watch all these you tube videos, listen to recordings, demos, albums etc... and I can NEVER get the same sound I hear, even when I KNOW I have exactly the same gear.
I love my amps and gear, don't get me wrong. And I can make them sound sweet. But too often I end up trying to make it sound exactly like a tone I hear-whether its a pedal demo, amp demo, whatever. And for the reasons you mentioned, I can never get it there. The way it's miked, the post production, and yes, my own fingers.
I just need to remind myself that sometimes or I will drive myself nuts! :high
