LocusLarson: My Yammie is too big for her. Aaron: Thanks, now I feel better about the MDF. ;)

alexspetty: If I had Liv here, I wouldn't be posting on this BBS. ;) Everyone metions that skip. I'm going to have to find the original WAV to determine if it was me or the encoding. I'll check 4:14. Thanks for listening. A Reel Person Aiee. The 3:27 curse! :p Yeah it's not as raw as...

"This unit works with or without the special pickup and cable (not supplied)." It can work without the pickup, but not as well. I liked the VG88 for a lot of tones, but it couldn't get a good distorted sound to my taste.

Ok, just listened to your clip. Nice playing. You didn't mention the power amp you are using or the speaker cab. These will also influence your tone. Experiment with different mic positions. Subtle changes in angle and position drastically change your tone.

Some things that give a heavy, chunky tone like those on your favorite album: 1. Proper playing technique; 2. Mesa/Boogie Rectifier, Mark IIC+, TriAxis; 3. Close mic'ing a SM57; 4. Doubling, tripling, each guitar track; 5. Detuning down at least a step; 6. Guitar type, especially using...

Dammit Aaron. We need bedroom furniture and I just convinced myself it's ok to get some inexpensive MDF stuff until we are ready to get good stuff. Now I'm having second thoughts. :D :D The analogy works well because there's no way I'll say the MDF stuff even compares to the real stuff...

Awesome pic LocusLarsen. Also, ditto Lesterpaul.

Btw, I played this tune for my wife. She loved it.

I always liked the lo-fi beginning. It always makes a song sound even better when it kicks in. :p Nice voice and good harmonies. For my taste, certain harmonies could be louder, or maybe the main vox could be softer. Also the drums could be louder and punchier. Great song, excellent...

Also, I'm sure you'll get lots of replies. It's like walking into a Mercedes convention and saying your Escort rides just as well. Yeah, right.

What mics, etc?! :mad: ;)

That reminds me. We were looking at approx $200 guitars as a starter for my wife. My Yammie's too big for her. After kind of liking Oscar Schmidt and Ibanez (for the price). I was introduced to a new Taylor for $300! Great tone compared to the others, smaller than my Yamaha, better fit for...

Ditto BluesMeister. Thus, it's ok if I steal your guitar if I don't use it often Ok, I'll only steal your expensive guitar. Right. I'd never actually buy an expensive guitar. So it's ok if I steal one. Ahh. I can steal your guitar for a short while as long as I return it (or destroy...

Nice opening harmonies. Very punchy drums! Lots of fun stuff going on. Polished, then the funky bass & funky axe. Very good vox. Ooooh. More cool bass, slap it! Let us know which mic, pre, etc. you used on the vox. Excellent job. I'm throwing it on my frequent play list! :cool:

Nice intro. Fun sitar solo. Axes go: "Chugga-chugga-chug!" Nice. Personally, I would add heavier compression to the vox to set them in the style of mix better... I like the "You won't change..." sections. Nice break with the acoustic... Then back into the thump. Cool. Nice ending. I've...

LOL! It's funny how people try to define what "Biggest Most Dangerous" means. Wait... Let my pull out my technical dictionary on guitar tones... Oh... wait... it doesn't exist. Be that as it may, I love AC/DC, but I don't really think their tone compares to Metallica, Pantera, etc. in...

Where it is in it's life cycle really shouldn't matter. It's not like you're buying a car that will be outdated. A good amp is a good amp regardless of how old it is. Go to the shop and listen. If you like the sound, buy it.

Yeah, but have you ever padded?

AIEEEE! SWEEEEEET! Intro guitars rock! The great drums. Then the OZZ voice! Man I love it when you sing ozzy. I have absolutely no criticism. I'm enjoying it too much to criticize. I just love Sabbath covers. And this one's done so well. Sorry that I'm probably not much help. Great...
