C minor improv

Here is a track of of my refurbished '66 Fender Super Reverb amp after my buddy Steve Siciliano retubed and tweeked it. Here's the gear set up... old '82 fender strat with '68 pickups into Carl Martin Compressor to a TS9 Ibanez Tube Screamer into an old Electro-Harmonix MemoryMan Deluxe delay into the front of the super reverb....the whole thing was recorded in Logic pro 7 in about 15 minutes...enjoy

I like it! You are definitely a smooth player. I need to check out your site more. What are the settings on the pedals, if you don't mind me asking? I'm a geek for that kind of stuff.

Sounds good!

cool

Wow man. You are such an amateur. I would be afraid of posting songs if I played that horribly.

Kidding aside, I'm on my way outside now to set my gear on fire. Ain't no use in playing anymore.

Acually I'm using a mixture of both scales superimposed on one another. That is a common method used amongst blues players. There is also a touch of the aeolian mode
(1,2,b3,4,5,b6,b7)also known as the pure or natural minor scale.

shee-it, that sounds great. You've got a tone to die for. I want to say it's a little Robin Trower with a bridge pickup.

How much did you get the amp for? Very cool

It's funny but I used to play alot of Robin Trower tunes in cover bands in the past. I bought my Fender Blackfaced Super about 12 years ago for $350.00 It was a mess...miss matched speakers..bad tubes...unbiased...etc...If you go on Ebay they go for between $1600.00 up to $2400.00 depending on the condition and if everything is original. The black faced amps are the best especially 1963-1968. Mine is a '66 but I also have a '65. http://cgi.ebay.com/66-Fe...dZViewItem
