Here is my song called Siren Song-written and performed in my studio/spare bedroom. The lead guitar sound came out nicely-not bad for an Epi Les Paul!:thumbs up: SoundClick artist: Anfontan - page with MP3 music downloads

The P-90 pickups will give a much better tone if you adjust the pole pieces closer to the strings rather than raising or lowering the pickups themselves. I adjusted the polepieces on my Melody Maker with a Gibson P-90 and the results are great! By the way, the Gibson/Epiphone forum is a good...

Hey heat, if you are mixing down with a program like Adobe Audition it would be cool to experiment with taking the noise-interlude/string scrape sounds and reversing it-it will sound somewhat totally different and it might fit the song nicely. I've had a few reversed tracks that totally fit the...

Good tune, I really like the acoustic guitar sound and how it doesn't get overshadowed by the electrics, I play in an acoustic band -mandolin, guitar, and dobro and the acoustic drives the song so well. Your vocal reminds me of the singer in REM-Michael Stipe-especially at the beginning of the...

Its sure a nice mellow, melodic tune-I enjoyed it quite a lot. Its been mentioned already but the clave is louder than it should be and I think the vocal could use a slight more reverb. The finger noise of the strings seem like the strings are brand new and really seem to effect a few certain...

Thank you knugen, I think another rhythm guitar would help with some fullness-probably my Strat or Tele-and re-do the vocals. I'm a big fan of blues and ZZ Top, glad that you find my song similar to them!

TripleM and Ram6Speed, once I transfer the tracks I can do a lot more in editing and I am planning to re-do the vocals-(I forgot to add the alcohol when I tracked the vocals!):drunk: Sorry it took a while to reply-I've been doing job interviews and time has been limited. Thanks to the both of you.

I have done early versions of this song but I've never posted them on Home Recording-I guess its my song style. The drums were a Yamaha machine, I forgot to add that to the list-I was using the on-board effects on the 8 track. Thanks for the reply heatmiser! I am planning to transfer all of...

Thanks so much for the listen and the comment, Gerry. I'm hoping to redo the vocals and the rhythm guitar, most likely the Les Paul solo as well-I just think the tones could be better. The Melody Maker has such a cool tone that I will probably keep that intro solo-it has a single P-90 in the...

Nice cool tune, heatmiser-it has a late 60s/Summer of Love/ early 70s vibe going in there. Kind of a pop sound and those Jerry Garcia licks work so well with everything. Are the leads on an SG, and what is the vocal effect? The song is a winner!

I listened to your latest version of the song and I love the sparseness and simplicity of it. Less equals more in his situation. Like Chili says, there are lots of people that will collaborate and help filling out the song. I played a guitar solo track for Chili a few years ago that was on his...

Time for a bump:guitar:

I haven't posted anything new in forever, this is done on a Tascam 8 track with a Melody Maker on rhythm and first entry solo and Epi Les Paul for main solo, Roland XP-60 Keyboard, and Ibanez bass. Mostly first takes so its definitely rough, give it a listen and give a comment-help me beat it...

You should write a song using the cicadas as the main feature, those cicadas always reminded me of the sound effects from the original 'War of the Worlds' from the early 1950's. Whenever the Martian crafts were featured it was like freekin' cicada city!! The War of the Worlds (1953 film) -...

Nice Lucille, tascam4ever. My Sheraton is very similar, I also have a Epi L. P. Standard, the G-400, and a Firebird Studio. All of them are great instruments, and fine sounding as well. See them below.

Here is my input on the Gibson vs Epiphone SG. I had a 1970 era Gibson back in the late 1970s, it had a bound neck and the vibrola trem bar on it. It had a nice tone but it would not stay in tune for a couple of songs-I needed it to be dependable with the hard rock band I was in and it had to...

This tune really rocks Rami, definitely a favorite from the Physical Graffitti album. I have to say that your vocal is amazing on this song-I saw Zepplin live on the Physical Graffitti tour and Plant didn't sound as good as you do on this! The new amp sounds very sweet, probably a lot like my...

Damn sweet guitar, Greg! I was in a band many years ago where the other guitarist had a Mosrite, it was a nice guitar but your new guitar blows is away. A guitar with P-90 pickups and the set neck construction are a great addition to your guitar harem.:cool:

Hey Gerry, I would start checking out this switch problem by getting some contact cleaner and spraying in through the switch slot in the pickguard. Be very careful and put towels or clean rags down so that the contact cleaner doesn't damage the pickguard or the finish on the guitar. Work the 5...

I have one of the MIJ Fernandes Stratocaster copies and it has been my #1 Strat style for live performances for many years. Like Tokia, they made some very outstanding copies of Fenders and I could tell it had a good acoustic sound as soon as I strummed it unplugged. That was the vibe that won...
