Noob here with a Miracle Man clip.
« on: December 22, 2005, 04:56:56 PM »
Howdy folks, this is Thor.  I am the guitarist in a prog/power metal band known as Archaic Reign.  I found out about Bare Knuckles from Mark Briody who plays guitar in Jag Panzer - thank you Mark!

 I just recently got a set of Miracle Man pickups straight from Bare Knuckles and I couldn't be happier.  The following clip was just recorded this morning, it is a rough draft of a song that we are currently working on.  There is no bass, vocals, or lead guitar yet as I just wanted to see what they sounded like recorded.  My setup is as follows:

Dean custom Time Capsule V -> Morley Bad Horsie II -> Boss TU-2 Tuner -> ISP Decimator (foot pedal) -> Engl Powerball -> Marshall 1960A Cabinet (stock speakers)
 
I recorded the guitar (which I double tracked) with a Sure SM-57 microphone that is centered on the upper right cone.  I run this into a Behringer Eurorack UB1002 mixer (with all EQ's set to 0) and then into a Fostex MR-8 multi-track recorder.  I dumped the two guitar tracks into Acoustica's Mixcraft and mixed with the drums and keyboards.  I did no equalization to the guitar tracks at all, what you are hearing is the raw guitar tracks.

Fantastic pickups!  Thank you Bare Knuckles!

Great metal tone, and playing! That reminds me of Facing Hell by Ozzy at some points. I'd love to hear the final song!

excellent stuff. Got to love the prog metal. Really nice tone. I have a Powerball as well, what awesome amps. Loving your tone. I havent tried my head through anything apart from an Engl cab so i am going to have to experiment.

Keep up the good work. Keyboards are very Dream Theater! Which is awesome.
