Title: MQ Slow Blues rubbish
Post by: Elliot on December 10, 2005, 05:56:35 PM
OK another one of my ropey slightly out of time clips - its a slow blues solo from one of David Hamburger's books - the bass comes from the CD that comes with the book, the drum is PC Drummer Pro and rhythm and lead are a Fender Esprit (the original alder body + maple cap one, not the newer Squier mahogany bodied) with a A4 MQ in the neck.  Amp wise I am playing through a Guitarport Fender Bassman model with a hint of distortion and delay.  I'm also using a digitech bad monkey as a booster - Level at full, gain at 0 with the eqs at half way

As I said a bit ropey in places, the bends aren't 100% and my finger slipped on one of them, but nevermind.....

Aside from some small timing errors, I like it. The tone is great and the playing is definitely capable. I wouldn't call it rubbish!

Sounds good.

I'll post some clips of mine when I finally get my Power Screamer.

Ah, you're too hard on yourself, Elliot. Everyone's fingers slip when that recording light is flashing! Sounds cool. :)

Good tone Elliott. After having done my first post a couple of weeks back, I realise how much goes into it so keep at it.
