Friendly Solo Contest 2

Great melodic solo, how did you record it?

Thanks!
I DL-ed the track and imported it into Audacity. Then used the setup I described above.
I usually record in Cubase but for some reason it kept freezing up on me.

Thank you.
That was my 2015 LP Special with Fokin Custom p90’s into the Blackstar HT Dual pedal using the emulated output straight into my DAW.

Re: Friendly Solo Contest 2

JB can be magic in the right guitar or a trainwreck in the wrong as they are one of the most fickle pickups I have used. This particular combo is one that really works. Frankly I was surprised that it was a JB when I pulled it on this particular guitar as it just kills. Thanks man.

People talk smack on the JB, IMHO, the JB is as good as it gets for ripping lead guitar. Not the sweep crap maybe, but I never liked that anyway. Arpeggios played straight up and down is an awesome technique, but it sounds like Azz

Guitar and amp both are from 1991 so---.

Close enough smarty pants LOL

Huh. The JB doesn't sound as middy as everyone always seems to complain that it is. :P

Nice clip!

Well it's about to snow here and the wife is locked down at the hospital under their emergency plan so I'm alone and bored what the heck---. The Pawn shop rescue Ibanez mutt with a JB in the bridge plugged straight into my Mesa DC 5 head on a Blackstar 1/12 with a WGS Retro 30 in it bout as raw and straight forward as it gets. Recored with a little Sony SX 700 recorder bout the size as a BIC lighter sitting across the room with the track playing through my JBL monitors again about as low tec and primitive as it can get so--.

Re: Friendly Solo Contest 2

I've been using my audio computer and rack interface downstairs for digitalizing my LP collection, I'll try to cut some time today evening to haul the gear back to my amp and record something.

I haven't yet got into those mobile computers...
