Ok, so this is going to my be son's 18th birthday present: We've played it in the shop and my son's thrilled with it, only we have no idea how it performs in a band situation. Any of you lot have any experience with this cymbal? It sounds as if it will record beautifully.

Hi, guys - I haven't posted any tones for ages, as I've been working on a song. JDOD has been a sounding-board for what I'm about to play you, as I've been struggling to write a solo for the bridge section. The first one I came up with was ok but didn't set the world on fire for me. The second...

So, back in 1992 in Wakefield, England, some mates had a band called "Cable" and they wrote this song. They promptly split up and the song never got properly recorded or released. I've never been able to get it out of my head from that day to this - I think it's a lost classic - so I decided...

I wrote a new song. It's called "Anthropocene", and it's about how human activity will now be showing up in the geological record. anthropogenic global warming, a mass extinction event, radiogenic elements in the strata due to weapons testing, nuclear accidents and atomic warfare etc. A new...

"Marianas" Music video by Bubba po and Armistice as "SavantSyndrome". This is my first ever video. I created it on the free version of Sony Music Studio. SavantSyndrome is a loose collaboration of artists brought together and co-ordinated by myself, Bob Harris. Frank Harris: Drums and flute...

I knocked this one out this afternoon - It's a jingle for Frank's podcast that he does at school with his mate. He does a segment called "The Hateful Harris", where he rants amusingly about stuff he hates. Go on, It's only 15 seconds out of your life! :D...

Good to see you're not dead this morning! https://soundcloud.com/bubba_po/vesuvius Plus Armistice's "Crocodile Dundee" version. ::laughings:

.... and in this version, Armistice goes full "Crocodile Dundee/ Monty Python "Bruces" sketch" on its ass. :D (NSFW, recommended listen. :D ) Lyrics: Mount Vesuvius is a stratovolcano – perhaps the most famous volcano in the world In 79 C.E. it went off like a frog in a sock, destroying...

https://soundcloud.com/bubba_po/vesuvius SavantSyndrome is a loose collaboration of musicians including Myself, my son, my wife, Armistice and Adam Fiasco. Concepts, production, lyrics and mixing are mine. Guitars and vocals: Bubba po Drums: Frank po Extra guitars and main vocal: Armistice...

Hi, Ido, thanks for commenting and bumping the thread! There is an update. This new mix has Hammond organ on it, plus a little extra near the end! ;) Still no main vocal yet, but the lyrics are on their way. :)

Mix update: Sorted out the "clean" guitar by re-recording. Added some sound effects and Armistice has kindly supplied some nice parts for the middle section and ending. Just waiting now for the Hammond track and I'm in the middle of writing another National Geographic voice-over. :D What do...

Hi, guys. This track is going to get vocals (possibly spoken word, like my last one) and probably Hammond organ. I need to do something interesting with the middle bit. Oh, and I just realised one of the chords is wrong on the clean guitar part. Playing a minor arpeggio when it should be a...

I was going to PM you, but it wouldn't allow me to attach a pic in a PM Somebody's selling four of these in two crappy cabs. What are your thoughts? He's wanting £200 ($285) but is inviting offers.

Here's my take on "Bodies". Red crunch, Gain 5, everything else the same as previously.

This is more like it - I moved my mic closer to the dustcap, took the gain down half a notch and the bass down a notch. Still gainier than the record for the reasons mentioned. Where the hell is Dodsworth? He was supposed to be kicking ass in the tone thread, not fucking about in the sea on...

Ok, as promised, some Pistols for you. If I was recording this for a cover version I don't think I would have it this gainy, but live it works well for that solid Steve Jones slab of sound. Amp: Marshall JVM 410H Cab: Standard 1960A Guitar: Yamaha SG clone. Intro: Crunch channel, orange mode...

That's kind of how I feel about Nevermind. I'm not a fan of the man himself particularly, but christ, those songs!! I actually considered buying the Cobain Jag at one time. I saw sense and bought a standard Jap one instead. By the way, I'm a bit of a modelmaker on the quiet - what do you think...

Is it feasible, do you think, to change the speakers in a stock 1960A cab one at a time? Would it even be workable tone wise? It occurred to me that the odd V30 or greenback might crop up occasionally and it might be cheaper than doing the whole cab in one hit. Any thoughts?

Just the fingers on the fretboard. On my practice takes I got really nice controlled feedback there, which I was trying to induce. On the proper take the bloody thing refused to play ball. Typical! :cursing:And I agree about the rumble. I may have to roll that back a little more. Here's a...
