I have kind of been out of the mp3clinic loop for a while. I have been building a couple of guitars. I got back in my studio and recorded a little. Its been a while since I wrote and recorded an original. Its a traditional fast blues arrangement. I was thinking "man, these blues guys are...

I'm recording with Cubase LE. I have been recording with it for years...it's an old version. My interface is presonus audio box 4 channel. Computer is running Windows 8. Anyway, I was recording a couple of rythym guitar tracks and a couple of passes on a vocal on a project I'm almost finished...

I levels the frets ( barely needed any leveling) and recrowned them. The rosewood on the new allparts necks fretboard wasn't pale but it wasn't as dark as I like. I wanted to darken it a few shades. I had already used bore join on it (fret doctor). It looked a little better but still wasn't...

So, I'm buying Tele parts on ebay and I find a fender lonestar strat body. It has the vintage fender trem, saddles, claw, springs and large steel trem block. Also the strap buttons. It has a beautiful 3 color sunburst finish too. How in the heck am I NOT gonna buy it? Are you kidding me....I'm...

I haven't been posting much lately. I have been fiddling around with a couple of guitar builds. One is a Tele. I have had this body and neck for a while. Finally decided to work on it. I decided to paint it gold firemist metallic. It is a color that fender introduced in 1966. I didn't really...

I attempted this tune a while back but I don't have the drum chops and the vocal is a little out if my range. So, Rami was kind enough to collab with me on it. We both love the tune! I played the guitar and bass and he laid down the drums and vocals. guitar, bass, and drums Power trio style!! I...

I'm using an old version of cubase LE. When I record I may do multiple takes of guitar parts, vocals, drums, and so on. All these multiple takes and edits are stored in the "audio" folder. It dosen't take long for that folder to become massive. It's full of audio snippets that allow multiple...

It's been a while since I wrote an original. I am a blues guy, so I think I just need to stick to blues. So, here is an idea for a fast shuffle blues song: "Get off that phone and drive!" I love you darlin' but hear me please, quit dialing with your hands and steering with your knees! Baby...

I found a great deal on a Vox ac 15c1 Tube amp (I wanted a low wattage tube amp). It's the new "made in China" generation of Vox tube amps. I wanted to love it. I tried to convince myself it was great. It is a beautiful classic vintage Vox looking amp. but.... I didn't really like it that...

I'm trying to decide between 2 Gibson Les Paul's. A) Les Paul studio 2006 model with hardshell case for $500. dark burst with gold hardwear I owned the LP for a few years and sold it to a friend for $500. He told me he will sell it back to me for the same $500. It has very little fret wear, is...

This is the first swing at a mix of this tune. It's an old r Red Foley country/western swing tune from the 1940s. I rock it harder than Red Foley did though. I worked on this some after work and I think it works better now I got rid of the earlier mixes and this is the latest one Crazy On...

Hi. I've been gone for a while...working on some tunes. Just wanted to run this by you guys and see if im on the right track mix and arrangementwise. All comments welcome Listen to Back In The USA -20 17 by jimistone #np on #SoundCloud Back In The USA -20 17 by jimistone | Free Listening on...

I love this old tune so I decided to cover it, I rock it a little harder than the original though. This is the first recording I have done using my lap steel, Its obvious I don't know what I'm doing on it....but I tried to coax out a somewhat not so terrible track with it. Any input on the...

I posted this and we years ago, but most of the people who heard it have long been to be from here. I don't really need mix advice. Be sure the basic tracks were lost. My best friend Donnie is playing drums and he died last summer. He was a phenomenal drummer. The only recordings of his playing...

This is an old Lynyrd Skynurd tune "Made in the shade" off their "Nuthin' Fancy" album. I always thought it would make a great straight ahead blues song.... So, I did it that way. I realize it still needs to be tightened up but this is a first quick mix just to see if it's translating on the...

I record with Cubase and it has multiple levels of undo. When I'm recording a song I may make several passes on each track. It saves all that to an audio folder. After several songs that have untold scores of passes on each track...the audio folder may have 80 gb of audio. Most of it is throw...

Just bought one on ebay: Dell Optiplex 990 Desktop 3.30GHz Core i5-2500 8GB RAM - No Hard Drive I think I'm going to put a SSD 500gb hard drive in it. Probably load it with windows 10 OS

A guy on the local Facebook buy-sell-trade had a Pearl H2000 hi hat stand for sale and only wanted $50 for it. I needed a better one so yesterday I went and checked it out. I was mint condition. Seriously, it doesn't appear to have ever been used at all. They are like $300 new at guitar center...
