Title: Mule set on Down - Stone the Crow cover
Post by: _tom_ on September 01, 2008, 03:03:15 PM
Woogie kept asking me to record this so I decided to learn it (not all of it but up to the solo) today then record it. I dont think all the parts are right and the lead melody seems a bit weak but I quite liked the tone :P

Epi LP - Keeley Rat - GH50L :)

Used the neck pickup with Rat off and volume rolled down for cleans then bridge pickup and rat on for everything else.

sounds cool Tom, the clean intro is especially close to the tone on the record.

Yeah I thought that when I listened back :) Should mention since my last clips I posted, I've had some Winged C EL34s put in, I dont know if you may be able to tell a difference with my current recording setup tho as its fairly low quality being an sm57 straight into onboard soundcard :lol: In person it sounds way better though, punchier, less fizzy and brighter yet somehow warmer. Tighter bass as well :) Definitely recommended for Laneys.

I have a Presonus Inspire 1394 interface on the way so hopefully the quality of my clips will be a bit better soon. I dont have an xlr-xlr lead for the mic yet, just an xlr-1/4" jack lead at the minute. Will the quality be as "bad" as it is now because I'm not using an XLR lead or does the interface and preamps in that make a bigger difference than the lead/connector used?

edit - I just realised why the lead bit doesnt fit in, for some reason I was playing it with loads of gain but its actually pretty clean on the proper one.

Ok! To me it's absolutely amazing, even the 'chorus' part... It isn't as dark as original, but very nice...

I'd like to have a guitar with warpigs, an SG with either a pair or a single bridge one in an SG-X or 1 would be so cool :D
