- S-GEAR by Scuffham Amps (Test, Demo & Review)
Review by Have Guitar!
Time a test run of the acclaimed S-GEAR amp sim from Scuffham Amps! As I've finally got the screen (and sound) recording to work as I wanted it - time for a software review! The S-GEAR from Scuffham Amps has been around for a while and I had this already a couple of years ago - and I was impressed! Now it's time to demo and review this amp sim here at Have Guitar!
So I have gotten several requests of doing a demo of the S-GEAR and I've been keen to do one for a long time now... had some big problem getting the OBS Studio to record a proper signal in real-time but that is now sorted! (Watch out for a coming video on how to set that up!) This piece of software is indeed very nice and it sound great. This review takes up what you get and then some sound demos with various guitars.
So I hope you like this video and thank for watching Have Guitar! If you like it feel free to subscribe to the channel to support me - one crazy Swede doing independent videos! And of course a Very Big Thanks to all you who do subscribe!!!
And, almost forgot... Happy New Year to ya all! :)

Best S-Gear review I have seen. Nicely done!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank You very much!
excellent job on this demo! Best I've seen. Thanks
Oh, Thank You!! 🤟😎🤟
Thanks for the insights into tones that the S2 has here my friend . It’s really helpful. I’m sure I’ll have lots of bang for the buck with this .
Thank you! Happy you felt it was helpful!
Thanks! I didn't know many of the features you've pointed out.
Glad you got some new info from the video! Rock on!! :)
Cheers mate ;-) Wait.. (edit) Tack so myket för det.. Det war utvöträmling so det ar.
Made up Swedish is easy..
Great in depth S-Gear review. S-Gear really sounds good compared to other sims for clean crunch mid gain etc. So many metal and high gain sims reviews and few that do mid gain so thanks. Have you tried the Blue Cat Free Amp sim plugin or Blue Cat Axiom? It sounds great for mid gain too.
Thanks!! I have some VST reviews coming up, I think Blue Cat will be included... 😎👍
S-Gear is sooo close to being the only amp sim I need. It just needs like one more amp, preferably a Vox, Jazz Chorus or Orange amp sim. A couple pedals wouldn't hurt either
Yes, its good.. But maybe not if you wanna go for more gain. Still need to test it with some physical pedals! Thanks for your comment! 😎👍
Good info for someone trying to make an informed buying decision! The real question is: Which amp SIM do you use and why?
I mostly use my Kemper! Sometimes sims and which depends on the project... But its fun and interesting to try out new stuff.
Great review ! Did u tried other software as TH-U ?
Thanks! I have some, planning to do a lot more... :) th-cam.com/play/PL-Me5Aw5Pnyra9jKTQWnegQ28fThAzpE-.html
Hey nice video!! Would you mind sharing how you are able to record this live demo? I've been going nuts trying to figure out how to do screen recordings inside my DAW using S-Gear. I've tried Voicemeeter, OBS, etc...I haven't been able to figure out the solution 😫
I hope my video will help you! Have a look and let me know!!

@@haveguitar Thanks so much!! This is exactly what I was looking for 😀
Hello. Very nice video! I'm looking for a guitar plugin and recently know about S-Gear. I realize it has a lot of realism. Have you tried Helix Native or Amplitube? how do you compare them against S-Gear? also I see you have a Kemper on your back, how do you compare against it? Thanks in advance, great video!
So far the S-Gear is the best plugin I have tried (tried both the Helix and Amplitube) but not for high gain/metal. I haven't put that much time into it but to me it seems to excel in clean to mid-gain or crunch sounds. I have some software amps to try out so keep an eye open for more test and reviews... Thank you for the comment!
Thanks for your reply, very important for me. Yes I am suscribed so I'll watch your next videos. If you let me I can give you an idea. I realized the approach of everybody to the guitar plugins is which one is more realistic, or better for cleans for crunch or for high gain. But honestly I haven't seen someone classify the guitar pluggins in family amps I mean which pluggin is better for Vox family, for Mesa family, for Marshall family, for Fender family, Roland JC120. I think this way is more accurate when deciding to which pluggin buy since maybe one pluggin is better for Vox but not for Fender for example.
Sounds Great! Thanks, not sure if it works with Windows 7 ? Do you have to have 10? Thanks
Says W10 (as supporten) , but you can download the demo version and see if it works.
thanks a lot, what kind of speakers do you have there on your pc ?
Its Event ASP-8, think they are out of production nowadays...
@@haveguitar thanks, I see such speakers a lot and never know what they are :-)
@@Erwinweyers75 Great speakers forxa studio, and with close to 300w they have the volume needed when necessary 😁
Sounds great on low to mid gain stuff. Not enough grunt for high gain.
Yep, agreed! It needs some lovin' from other plugins for high gain sounds!
@@haveguitar I wonder how it would do if you put an analog pedal on it...before the interface?
@@MeTuLHeD I have heard it should work fine! Gonna give it a try in an upcoming video... 😎
@@haveguitar Nice! That's one to look forward to! :D
I use the pedalboard in Logic of all things. I put an overdrive in front of the amps and sounded great.

Honestly, I would like to hear how these would sound when played on a 600 $ guitar versus a 1800 $ one
Actually, not trying to be smart here but the FGN (black strat-like) is a $600 guitar! Also in the ongoing videoseries where I demo all the presets I also use a $140 Harley Benton tele occasionally...
Have Guitar ok then I guess I am just a very incompetent guitar player hahah. Man I really hoped it were the other way :/
@@thomashendrikx841 Nah, c'mon... Im sure you're not - different people will like different equipment and get different sounds out of it.
S gear is so good my cheap Mexican strat kills through it, sounds best I have ever gotten from it
@@haveguitar Thanks for the support man. It's still incredibly frustrating to work on a recording and not get the tone that other people on this medium get from it - people like you. Any ideas why that might be or what other factors could influence the tone that much?
Not hating but the Positive Grid has so much more , to offer.. Or maybe it's me ..
I own lots of these types of plugins, though..
Thanks for the comment, there'll be more plugins-content to go!
Positive Grid stuff sounds like bung though. It's like the second worst modern plugin after Guitar Rig (and even that is pretty awesome for its effects.)
