Title: Dream Theater, Using Nailbomb
Post by: JamesHealey on July 18, 2007, 05:08:08 PM

Well I got my Digitech "Bad Monkey" killer over drive pedal and decided to use it to push the Cornford Hurricane a bit further into over drive.. I really like the basic tone of this Cornford and this Digitech pedal just gives it that push it needs.. STUNNING!

Anyway without further a doo! here's the clip.
Bare in mind I don't have a whammy bar so some of those whammy parts i've not been able to play right.. anyway here goes.

Comments please! :)

nice tone there, sounds pretty authentic.

How do you record, out of interest? :drink:

cheap guitar mic worth £20 straight infront of the V30, take a copy of the recording pan is hard right soak it in reverb and lower the volume on it. take the main track have it louder and 30% left put a room reverb on that.
All done in Cool Edit Pro 2.0.

nothing spectacular.
