It's the only tune in the player, "All Last Winter."

One-evening two-take jam with a minor tuning issue in one place, but I really like how it came out. All tones recorded in Raw mode on my Rec Pre, with lots of pickup switching and tone knob twiddling.

Signal chain is Yamaha Image Custom -> Rec Pre -> maxon AD-900 -> 20/20 -> 2 1x12 Avatar cabs. One cab is closed-back V30, the other is a partially-open back w/a Classic Lead 80.

Each cab is close-miked with an SM57 moderately off-center, into a Presonus BlueTube and then into Sonar. Did some very minor EQ, but no other post-processing. One track has a little bit of phase in the chain from a Subdecay Quasar phaser.


I'm really liking Raw mode lately.

Let me know what you think...

edit: yeah, it's really 'dry' but every time I started adding reverb anywhere it kind of smoothed out and went all Radiohead.

sorry man but to my ears you did the worse tones I ever heard.
I have it and it sounds 1000 times better than that,but if you like it,ok.

Probably better that way.

If you liked it who knows what you'd do with it. :|

edit: okay, that lacked class. Shouldn't have gone there. Leaving it up because I believe in owning up to it when I'm a dick.

I like the tone, but you weren't kidding about tuning problems :wink:
Semi-clean tones like that just do it for me, could be used for jazz, blues, or rock.
