Hey Al.C, here's another one ;)

And it actually has some Duncan content! Get your next one ready :laugh2:

LP Pro Deluxe with Duncan P90s, just some mellow noodling over a nice backing. Savage Macht 6 amp into a custom-built 2x10 cab.

BEAUTIFUL!!!!!! GREAT tone - love that sustain with just a bit of break-up. Nice touch with those fingers, a few well placed runs and a little pinch harmonic for seasoning. Your meloldic noodling is my favorite. GREAT. THose shredders may play circles around us old farts but I will listen to this any day!

Now we got two problems with me getting a posting done, first is I left the office at 9:15 pm tonight and will be leaving for work at 7am tomorrow, fairly routine lately. Second is that your playin' is blow'n me away. Not only do I need to find time to record something but I need to find time to practice first. Mind you I am really lovin the new amp so keep your eyes open for something soon, probably short but SWEET.

Very classy playing. Never heard of that amp, but the tone is great.

Thanks guys, you're way too kind!

Al, us old farts have to stick together or the young shredders will over run us and we'll be left gasping with broken guitars. I can't burn it up like I used to, but I still have fun

I can post the backing if anyone wants to take a swing at it.

Nuntius, it's just a little 6 watt tube amp made by a local company here, Savage Audio. I love it, serves the purpose well. In this clip I did juice it a little with Blackstone MOSFET OD.

Here's a pic from Savage's website

Sounds great for a little amp. My brother briefly got interested in building low watt amps. He came across some obscure power tubes and built a couple amps that were I belive in the 2-3 watt output range. Said they had the coolest overdriven sound. After a few weeks he lost interest in them, said they truly were a one trick pony. Could do the overdriven tone great but had no really useable clean tone and obviously no headroom.

sweet ALF ... it gives a nice big sound ... just enough break up ... plenty of sustain .. nice hint of reverb too

and tasty note choice!! ... smooth but with a bit of bluesy edge ...

where do you get your backings, friend? make em? buy em? find 'em free on the web?

thanks for sharing it
cheers

Thanks T4D!

I find 99% of my backings on the web. When I spot an interesting one, I nab it. I've never made one, per se. I have taken MIDI files, disassmebled them, run the various parts through soundfonts to snazz them up, then record them to individual waves for a better mix.

I have one CD I purchased called "Band In The Pocket" which has about 10 blues jam tracks.
