Glad people are liking these clips! :)
There's been another song added to the myspace since I made this thread, called Philistine. Same guitar sound though.

I have no idea how to transfer the patch to my computer, but I can tell you that it's the VH4 and JCM800 models running through a German 4x12 and a 4x12 T75 cab respectively, with one of the TS808 models driving it.

Not my thing, but thats a good recording :)

Fair enough, thanks!

Thank you mate, the guitar had (fairly old) D'addario 10-52s on, and was tuned to drop C.

Have you ever thought to try 11-52's?
The 10's feel like rubber bands to me now

Yeah, Misha definitely goes for a lighter tension than I do, but it's a big part of his sound, and fwiw, light strings picked lightly will sound just as huge as big strings picked hard when recorded, perhaps even huger as a result of the richer harmonic overtones you get.
I use the same 10-52 gauges a whole step higher, in E standard and drop D. Even with the tuning dropped to compensate, I simply don't like the feeling of unwound strings much bigger than 10s. I'd rather deal with floppy thinner strings.

holy shitee.. this clip blew my mind away  :shock: awesome dude!

Glad you liked it!

Nice one, cheers Martin!
Somehow I read your screen name as "Goody", possibly a remnant of the horror of seeing that the late Jade is having a musical made about her.

'Jade goody the Musical' (quick pass a bucket) Yes I saw that news item. I agree with Parkinson, she is everything thats wrong with modern British culture. A vile racist who contributed nothing except the death of brain cells across the UK every time she opened her gob.

On a lighter note at my advanced age lol, I am checking out Sikth, Meshuggah etc on the back of listening to your clips Nolly. I hope you get a good singer soon you deserve it m8.
