Another sleepless night brought up some interesting creation!
Mother's Milk in neck and middle
Swamp Ash body
500k pots
Maple Neck w/Ebony fretboard

Yeah, that's really nice. Did you use some compressor in it? Cause, if not, that would balance dynamics and lengthen the solonotes a bit, I think.

Thanks! I didn't use a compressor. Just reverb and delay.
I used an emulator program called GearBox!

Don't take this as criticism, cause your tone is really great. I have never used compressors, untill I heard someone play the Barber Tonepress, which is fastastic for clean soloing.

sorry to but in but compressors are widly used for clean sound for the very reason telerocker says.knopfler used a boss cs2, as did gilmore, even albert lee now uses one.amp models will have compression in there as loud valve
amps will have natural compression but only at high vol.(clean amps like fendr twin etc).
bottom line is compressors are essential for good clean tones at low levels(i'm thinking single string here) and very
useful as a clean boost for solo's, again when playing clean.they have no effect with distortion as the signal is already compressed.
nice playing by the way. :D
