Here's a clip of my bands new recording.....

What would anyone change about the guitar tone?

I'm sure "With Full Distortion" will add his opinion:)

I think your tone would be perfect in a context with more instruments. In this small setup of just a few instruments I'd prolly add a little more low mid frequencies or back off the treble a tad ... just to smoothen it out and blend it in better.

A bit more mids would bring out the growl a bit better. Before I had BKP's I always kept the mids low because it would sound muddy or harsh. You won't have that problem with BKP's.

Other than that, great sound.

I think it rules, bit more bass maybe. But it sounds great to me :D

By the way if you like the tone don't change it because we told you to.

That sounds pretty good.  I might go for a meaner tone, I'm not sure but that's a old school tone you got right there.

Is it just me or is there almost no left channel on that clip?

FWIW, I wouldn't change the tone at all - I really like it.  I'd just double the guitar part, & use a ton more low end on the bass to give you a really full mix.

Good song too with good playing & cool shouty aggro vocals :)

Yah
i liked the sound too
i would raise the guitars in the mix a LITTLE. cause the bass itself is already pretty apparent on the mix. and i´ll second what the other members said about the mid/bass and mid frequencies.
Q:)
Nice sound. it´s not my style but it´s a well done thing, so, it deserve the $%&#gin Kudos.
$%&#gin Hails and thank´s for the clips.

I'm clearly in the minority here, but I preferred the first mix. For me the tone in the first one worked better.

Then again, it's not really my type of music, so what the hell do I know  :wink:

Good stuff though (both versions).

I agree, I prefer the first mix better and think the guitar tone was better the first time, more natural and raw - in a good way.  It also lets the bass guitar 'breathe' more in the mix.  Great song and production by the way!  I loved it!

Looks like this is the final mix

Opinions?

Ok, i have listene to the three samples...

Even if in the third, you can hear the guitar sound better, the first is the better for my ears  :wink:

and, I think it's great, because it's a good punk hardcore song, and it's my kind of music!

Good to hear those pickups in this, because I want to buy them in few times...  :twisted:

wow, old thread.

yeah first one is the best, it is just that the bass is trebly and way too prominent.

Vocals are not my thing but the first 15 seconds are godly cuz dissonance certainly is my thing.

I'm listening in an amazing sounding room, and all three mixes sound very good to me, but the first one has the edge. Not keen on the lyrics but like the guitar sound how it was in mix 1, it's not too harsh. It sounds like a de-esser has been over used on the vocals esp bck vox, or do they have a lisp? is it just me?

+1 yeah the first riff make me mad

and the rock tone of the rebel yell is just amazing in this kind of music
