Modded Marshall Plexi, Dokken, Bareknuckle VHII Bridge

[shredaholic]

Here's something I recorded last night, with the extra gain stage I designed engaged. The gain is just below 8. The gain stage has a JJ ECC83S in it's tube socket. I'm loving the tone on this clip, it's so thick yet cutting, totally 80s hair metal.

I've just played what I can remember 'In My Dreams' going like, so it's not exactly like the record. I just set a drum loop going and rocked out!

The PPIMV is on about 2, and it's bedroom volumes - my cat didn't jump off my bed or show any general concern at the sound level like it usually does when it's getting a bit loud, so that shows that the volume level wasn't loud at all. The mic is aimed at one of the G12M's in the 1960A, same setup as the Power Rangers clip pretty much.

Hope you like the clip!

Hard ash Strat body, jackson style maple/ebony neck, wilkinson vintage strat bridge with graphtech saddles, neck VHII and bridge VHII (that is angled with the treble strings side towards the bridge). Also there's an optional mid boost circuit in there that comes on when I twist a pot (looks totally stock from outside though). I've got a coil tap on there with a mini DPDT switch for the outer coils but the guitar was on humbucker mode at that point. Also, it has a brushed aluminium diamond-plate pickguard. The guitar has a custom paint job like my phaser in the avatar, it's a very cool custom guitar.

Cheers guys

I'm actually planning on recording an album at some point, it's just getting the stuff together. I'm still wanting to get a synth, an SP B1 condenser and some proper headphones for recording with. Then I'll get to work!!!
