Blacksnake! HD content!
« on: June 23, 2012, 11:15:31 AM »
Hi guys,

Just thought I'd post this on here as I recorded it to test out my new ampsim, Scuffham amps S-Gear.  It is a classic rock song with time change and dynamic use of guitar volume control at the end to show how good S-Gear is.  I used my Warmoth Soloist with HD set for every guitar part.  Enjoy!

Anyone wanna do some Coverdale-esque vocals on it?

Cheers,
Jim

Very nice
Main riffage has a C'mon and get it - Slide It in era feel about it (proper Snake) and the soloing is very Marsden too - lovely!

Really nice! ... (I think Feline and I are the two biggest "snakeheads" on this board)  :P

Cheers,

Funnily I was listening to the Snake on my iPod recently, the later couple of albums with Douglas Aldrich on them.

Oh and the playing at the end over the slow bit is just the bridge HD - sounds really creamy through the S-Gear Marshall sim.

Really nice amp sims. That is some really good classic rock tone for digital! I find it nearly impossible on POD Farm to get classic rock.

Cool tone though :)

That riff sounds remarkably similar to enter sandman... Or is it just me. Anyway, Amazing tone and very enjoyable song :)

It actually came about as I was recording another song. I had just put the S-Gear plugin on the guitar channel and started jamming, trying to get a good sound. The riff sounded cool so I recorded it into another project et voila!

I like what you've done - it's one of my favourite Snake flavoured demos of late

You'll probably enjoy this one if you like the new album
This is a demo of the Salvation Mods Camerock modification to the Randall MTS series modular preamps (which I use)

Enjoy....

They also have a step by step tour of the modules features if such things interest you
I kind of have GAS for one of these modules now

Here is the run-through
