Thanx!
The guitar players were just fooling around... Both also play through Mesa BTW, a Mark IV and a Mark III head 8)

the bass tone is realy good

but the guitars sound like line6 spiders or something :d

Could it be those darn Marshall cabs? :mrgreen:
Left guitar = Mark IV, Right guitar = Mark III, I think they're recorded through the recording out.
The overall guitar sound in my band is amazing, though I allready convinced the guitarplayers to get Mesa cabs :twisted:
We have some SM-57's in the practice room, I think I can come up with a clip featuring guitarsounds you will like soon. :wink:
Thanx for the comments! 8)

Sick bass tone!! Nailed the Cliff and Jason dead on! I agree with the comments about the guitar tones though... hehe

Sounds like the right guitar (mkIII) is clipping the recording preamp during the recording. Must be drums in the room, I thought I could hear the snare buzzing (not a bad thing, but where was he, lol).

First bass riff is great, but a hair more bass would define it as a bass in the band situation.

Of course, the way this was recorded defines the sound.

great bass sound dude, nice and clean, but what to expect from an alembic through a mesa!
but the guitars are just frickin horrible!

Here is another recording, right out of the practice room:

Sounds a bit funny due to bad mp3 conversion, I will upload a better version next week...
All Mesa sound, Mark III, Mark IV through Marshall 1960 cabs and Strategy 400 through Powerhouse/Diesel bass cabs.

Btw: I've edited the bas solo mp3, so the "bad" guitarparts and clean solo are no longer there....
