Title: Cold Sweat Neck, Clip
Post by: JamesHealey on July 14, 2006, 08:35:33 PM

This clip is recorded entirely using the Cold Sweat

The cleans are on the CS neck and the Lead is all CS Neck.

Fender Ash Strat, Into Carlton Camel amps clean channel with mid boost and gain up full.. so yea it's actually the boosted clean channel on this recording not the distortion channel, hence the rather moody tone.

Anyway here it is.

(Turn this clip up for some reason i've mixed it a bit quiet, u wont get the full tone unless ur speakers are moving a bit :P)

ps, sorry about the timing issues it's my pc's lack of ability to line up tracks.

Those Carlton amps sound pretty good from what I've heard (only your clips actually). Really nice tone and playing.

aye tom if u ever see one of the Full Tube Series amps buy it! they're cheap as chips and sound incredible! better than my ENGL, or any Boogie I've played for that matter.

aye steve i sometimes miss my VHII bridge pickup, I was quite happy to replace the VHII neck with the CS.. but im thinking the VHII was more suitable than the MM for me these days, might get a slightly hotter VHII if tim will make one for me.

:D I asked Tim myself about making a slightly hotter VHII. Aparantly at the time it couldn`t be done as the offset coil of the VHII is wound as far as it`s physicaly possible to go  !!

I`m sure Tim will chip in to contradict me any time now.

PS The CS neck has a lovely sweet Tone to it, But it can be over powering IMHO

Hey James cheers for helping me to decide finally on my neck pickup, it wa s toss up between MM neck and CS neck.

And also thanks to Jonny for putting the list together which helped me find this clip.
