Kind of hesitant about posting this because my playing was terrible Sat. night. I placed a small Zoom recorder in the back corner of the club by the light control booth.
I get asked a lot about my tone so this is the first time I really tried to record live.
Just wanted to share the live mix.
USA Custom Guitars swamp ash Tele body, maple/ pau ferro neck.
NailBomb Bridge, Mississippi Queen neck.
No effects, just Vol knob.
Krank Nineteen80 head
Krank solid poplar 2x12 cab, Eminence SwampThangs.

Tonewise it sounded good to me and great reggae feel through out the song. I found the solo a bit to modern and rock/metal according to the style of playing.

You're right...
Been recording practices and I am indeed going overboard, painfully.
And I do realize that the solo on the recording is dreadful.
New genre for me, when we got the group together a year ago, our first show, we had put together a bunch of covers from all sorts of modern rock, alt, etc to see what would go over well live. In one set we did Pepper "Ashes" and the crowd went wild over that song.
So we threw everything else away and discovered a whole genre of modern reggae bands. We quickly infused a bunch of covers then started writing our own songs...
So having covered the whole spectrum of rock for the past several decades, this old dog is learning some new tricks!
Thank you for your honesty, I am already taking a different approach.
