The recordings were engineered by Alex Gaziano. Thanks Alex! I couldn't have done this without your help. Alex used a very minimalist approach when recording the amps. He used an SM57 in the close mike position and a Carvin condenser microphone about 6 feet away to pick up the rooms ambience.
Alex just mixed them together (and perfomed his magic). There were no effects added. I think the recordings accurately reflect what the amps sound like.
