The Kemper Profiling Amplifier enables you to do what generations of guitar players have been waiting for: to capture the soul of all your amps (and so many more) inside a lunchbox-sized amplifier.

With cutting edge technology Kemper captures the sonic DNA of virtually any guitar amp for vivid and dynamic sound.

They were created by professional guitarists, engineers and producers in studios all over the world. Right out of the box, you will find classic tones of studio standards as well as profiles of highly sought-after amplifiers, some costing many times the price of the Profiling Amplifier. If you are looking for a particular sound, search the Rig Exchange database on our website, and download profiles and rigs from fellow users. You can also make your own profiles from your gear.

Kemper will be working tirelessly to create new profiles for you to download for free from their website as well. They employ the same techniques an engineer would use to create a great guitar tone in the studio, so you can be sure to receive authentic sounds from this digital guitar amp.

If you are tracking in a studio, you can profile the guitar amps that you record with. Later, you simply take these profiles with you and know that you can recreate the exact sound of the recording, both in rehearsal and live on stage.

    Kemper is the best amp I've ever owned. There is a reason why many professional musicians now use Kemper amps. With the right profile, Kemper amps sound (and respond to your guitar playing) exactly like a tube amp. Also, Kemper owners have the support of an active online community and thousands of amp profiles that you can download for free. My Kemper amp seemed expensive to me at first until I realized that having a Kemper is like owning every amp I can imagine... including rare and boutique amps that I would never be able to acquire. It's a miracle in a box.

    I am a slightly above average home player...I wanted to get into this type of rig, I tried the Helix and Katana, this thing is in a different league. Easy to use and excellent sound.

    I'm a songwriter/ producer and I use this thing every day on every single track. The best thing about it is when i'm looking for a specific tone, I cycle through a couple amps (from the pack that I bought) and I always find what i'm looking for and more. The tones just sit in the mix.

  • Love it, made the right choice

    Do you need a preamp to use with a cabinet?  I'm just a bedroom player. I definitely don't need 600amps!!!

    Nobody needs 600 watts. But, you do need amplification for your cabinet. What is it? Do you need an amp this advanced?

    does it really need to be 600 watts? in this day and age where a lot of amps are downsizing their power output, 600 watts seems kinda crazy

    Not necessarily. It is a matter of personal preference. We do offer lesser wattage amplifiers in our inventory.
