Re: new mp3s: Bogner & Tele
Hi Young Angus, thanks for the compliments! I thought the Bogner did really well putting out some great clean and light overdrive type tones. Its got a shine all its own, and it sounds great with a Tele.
Hey Gearjoneser, Bogner's just a fantastic amp. IMHO, the Metro outdraws the Matchless amps. The Metro's Schizo switch provides a huge amount of flexibility, and its not the same type of thing as the 5 position switch on the Matchless. The Matchless switch just incrementally adds mids & bass, if I'm remembering right. The Schizo introduces 5 radically different EQ structures. I'm still learning about the possibilities.
The band did this as a session at first. We are now backing individual songwriters as they appear on the radar screen. We did a few gigs with a local guy here that has a cd with some distribution... even got on TV with that one. We have another one coming up soon.... female blues type singer. Might be heading back up to Nashville for another Martin Anderson session. Also, put in a bid to do the demo for Hurt & West up in Nashville. Angela Hurt's backing vocals on You Need A Woman were really excellent, and Hurt & West are a country-rock type of sound. They might be doing it through Emerald up there, and if so, they'll already have a band in house. But, if you don't ask, you don't know.
