New Jag Panzer 100% Bare Knuckle
« on: December 19, 2010, 02:31:20 AM »
Here is a teaser trailer for the new Jag Panzer album (SPV / Sony) coming out next year in Feb

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRXwsJ1Ezxo

Every guitar part you here is 100% Bare Knuckle, specifically Rebel Yell, Holy Diver and Cold Sweat pickups.  Christian and I (other guitarist in the band) tried every guitar we own and the guitars with Bare Knuckles sound MUCH better.

The BK tone is fat, saturated and organic sounding.  I love that in a guitar tone.

Ben!  How are you doing?  Things going well for you?  What pickups are you mainly using?  I've got Rebel Yells in most of my guitars, but I've got a set of Aftermaths that I pick up tommorow at the post office. Those are going in an old Dean Z.

Alex - I added a warning about the flashing images.  I don't want anyone to have any bad experiences watching the video.  Thanks for pointing that out.

Telerocker - Yep!!  We are all HUGE Dio fans in the band,way back to the Rainbow years.

Cool sound man. Never got into you guys. Maybe it's about time I pick up an album. Any recommendations?

And why in the hell did that vid link me to this vid... This vid is better, BTW.

That solo for the Condemned to Fight excerpt was awesome! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ud6UYu2rYdE&feature=related
And that's just a Rebel Yell neck into the Marshall? A wee-bit of Yngwie on that solo....  :D It's good.

Thanks for the compliment on that solo!  I'll pass it along to Christian (the guy that played it).

That solo is actually a Coldsweat neck into a Fractal Audio Axe-FX (recorded direct).  We used Rebel Yells for rhythms and harmony guitar parts, but not for solos.  Christian owns a Marshall that he was going to use for solos, but after hearing the Fractal, he did all solos with that unit.  The patch used on the Fractal is based on a Marshall head.

Fractal Audio is taking over the world. I need to get a piece. I just listened to that solo again. The part where he goes, "Weedly deedly deedly HIGH Weedly deedly deedly LOW" It makes me smile. It sounds like he's having fun. =) Good luck with spreading the new album.

Hey Mark,

LOVE LOVE LOVE the sound! I actually got into you guys through a mutual acquaintance, my cousin Clint Barker. I hadn't heard any JP before he pointed me in your direction and this new material is insanely good! Glad you're using BKP's exclusively, just goes to show that you and Christian have exceptional taste in hardware.  :D

Keep up the awesome work, I'll be grabbing myself a CD of this asap.

That's totally cool your cousins with Clint.  He's a great bass player and overall cool guy.

I can't say enough about BKP.  The tone, workmanship, quality, everything blows away every other pickup I've used.  It's the difference between a decent tone and an amazing tone.  I remember sitting in the studio last month listening to drum sounds getting mixed.  It seemed like hours just getting the snare tone.  The amount of time it took to mix a killer guitar tone?  About 45 seconds.  Seriously.  And that's because of Bare Knuckle.  I can't imagine recording with anything else.

Totally man! They made my bronze series Warlock sound like a guitar that could have cost a few hundred pounds more, heh.
