SRV Inspired Clip (VHII + Irish Tour).

This is a SRV inspired tune, (no shite).

This was recorded on a Screamer 50 watt Combo on clean channel with hi gain selected.. like the 2nd channel with the input gain turned down slightly to get a really responsive sound.

the pickup being used is a VHII and Irish Tour, 4th selection on a HSH Ash Bodied Start w/Ebony Board.

I likey this one.

Cheap 20 quid microphone thats a copy of a sm57 closed mic'd ENGL Screamer 50 straight into a soundblaster live card and into cool edit pro 2.0

nothing fancy, just takes a while to get the right sounds out of it.

Humbucker Single Humbucker

VHII, Irish Tour, VHII

I recorded this with the middle & neck pickup together so it's VHII & Irishtour together..

I've recently replaced the Neck Pickup with a Cold Sweat, just play better for fast lead etc... also changed my amp since i recorded this might, re-record it to give u an idea.

The Irish Tours are not imparticularly noisy, no more than a good single coil would be, I really dig the honk in the mid range it's a beautiful tone.
The VHII Bridge pickup is stunning.. so is the neck one but it kept feeding back in high gain situations live so i got something geared a bit more towards shredding on the neck.

This is a record of that for you

This is purely using the Irish Tour in the middle, no VHII or Cold Sweat.

Same guitar, different amp.

Really, really good stuff. Nicel played, lovely rakes and vibrato. Perfect. I wonder what it would sound like cranked up a la Jeff Beck?

I prefer the first version, I like the way certain of the phrases sound like they are "running out of breath". I am not sure whether that will make sense to anyone but me. But it's that sustain with an uneven volume that I love, it seems to come from strats more often than not.

Very nice smooth glossy tone...... my tone always ends up being fatter, but I like your tone equally well.

We have similiar, varied tastes in music too I am finding.

cheers dean, yea I try to listen to everything from Andy Timmons to Decapitated from Whitesnake to Frank Zappa, SRV and Acid Techno and everything inbetween.. It's all good.

Yea tom if u manage to see one, buy it! im still to find a better sounding amp and i've been comparing it to amps with 3k and 4k price tags and this thing cost me 300 quid.
