Pre-Owned Kemper Profiler Head Non Powered Black with Bag and Footswitch

The Kemper Profiler Head: A World of Guitar Amplifier Tones at Your Fingertips

Kemper Profiler Guitar Amplifier Modeling and Profiling

What if you could have the sound and feel of your favorite guitar amplifiers without having to find room for all of them? That's the idea behind the Kemper Profiler Head, and it's a pretty remarkable one. Rather than limiting you to a collection of conventional digital amplifier models, Kemper developed a system that allows you to capture the sonic characteristics of actual amplifiers and store them as Profiles. From sparkling cleans to thick, harmonically rich overdrive and ferocious high gain tones, the Profiler offers an enormous range of possibilities in a single unit. Better still, you can create your own Profiles, making this a particularly compelling tool for players who have spent years chasing that elusive perfect tone.

Kemper Profiler Head Amp and Cabinet Profiles

The beauty of the Kemper system is that you're not locked into a particular amplifier and cabinet combination. The Profiler allows you to browse, select, and combine amplifier and cabinet Profiles to build sounds that suit your playing style. Dedicated gain, EQ, and volume controls make adjustments straightforward, while the ability to store complete Rigs means your favorite sounds are always within reach. Whether you're putting together a collection of vintage inspired cleans, muscular crunch tones, or saturated lead sounds, there's a tremendous amount of flexibility here. And with the ability to refine and customize individual Profiles, you can get as involved in shaping your sound as you'd like.

Built In Guitar Effects and Performance Control

Of course, a great amplifier sound is only part of the equation. The Kemper Profiler also provides an extensive collection of effects, including distortion, compression, modulation, delay, reverb, pitch shifting, and more. Eight flexible effect modules allow you to arrange effects before and after the amplifier section, giving you the freedom to construct everything from simple, traditional guitar rigs to considerably more elaborate signal chains. The included footswitch makes this package especially attractive for live use, allowing you to manage sounds and effects without constantly reaching for the front panel. With Browser and Performance modes available, the Profiler is equally comfortable exploring sounds or organizing them for a setlist.

Non Powered Kemper Profiler Head for Stage and Studio

This is the non powered version of the Kemper Profiler Head, meaning it does not contain an internal power amplifier for driving a passive guitar cabinet. You'll need an external power amplifier for that application, but the Profiler can also connect directly to a mixing console, recording interface, powered monitor, or headphones. That makes it a remarkably versatile centerpiece for a recording or performance rig. Balanced XLR main outputs, additional analog connections, MIDI, USB, and digital audio connectivity provide plenty of options for integrating the Profiler into your existing setup. Whether you're recording direct or building a stage rig around your favorite Profiles, the possibilities are extensive.

Pre Owned Kemper Profiler Head Condition and Accessories

This black Kemper Profiler Head is a pre owned example with minimal cosmetic wear, but consistent with regular use. Any cosmetic wear is documented in the photoset. Notice that the original plastic protective film is still on the LED display! The unit is completely stock and has recently been factory reset, providing a fresh starting point for building your own collection of sounds. A bag and footswitch are included, making this an appealing package for the guitarist looking to explore the Kemper ecosystem. Please note that the Contrast knob on the Remote Footswitch is intermittent, but tested functional. For players interested in the flexibility of amplifier profiling without committing to a conventional amplifier and cabinet setup, there's an awful lot to like here.
