Title: Bareknuckle Nailbombs (Clean & Distortion)
Post by: Chris Swollenballs on December 19, 2009, 07:53:56 AM
Just a quick clip I did a little while ago.

It's a Bareknuckle Nailbomb in the bridge position fitted into a Jackson KE2. (Maple/Ebony/Alder/Floyd Rose/25.5")

Quad tracked on the dirty rhythms, doubled on the cleans.

Amp is an Axe-FX.

Sounds amazing, I think the rhythm is a bit too loud once the lead starts in but I love that clip.  Finish it, I think it would make a great song.

Great tone and playing as ever. I notice that you did it with Axe-FX. I keep hearing that AF is very amp-like to play. In that you have extensive experience with good amps how do you think it compares?

Thanks!

Definitely true on the loudness.  My forte is not recording. :lol:

I'll say this; the Axe-Fx is probably the best tool in the world for someone who wants to connect their guitar to an amp -> directly to a pc and get really amazing guitar tones!

I haven't recorded my tube amps in a while as a result.

Now that being said, the Axe-FX will not replace my tube amps in a live mix or on studio recording but as someone who likes to record from home, it's the best tool ever.
