Very Nice
I LOVE the 007 style rhythm, makes me feel like im doin somthing im not supposed to be. biggrin

The solo, like it, Love the sustained high notes at the end of the elec guit solo. Thats my style. What pre amp are you using if you dont mind me asking?
Also, are you going direct or Mic'ing up?
Ive been getting into ribbon mics at about 75 watts, damn is it punchy and concussive! Anywho, thanks for the clips, I thuroughly enjoyed cool

Also, I dont think people understand that a lot of notes they are hearing are still you playing guitar!

See that grey thing with the wire that goes under his strings, that thing makes all kinds of cool synth sounds.!
Am i right?

Thanks,
I play guitar and piano. I then play bass using my keyboard controller.
here is my equipment list:

Gear I use in my home studio....

82 Fender strat with 62 pickups and Axon guitar synth,
San Dimas Charvel strat,
Gibson ES 775 archtop and
70's Gibson Les Paul Custom.
2006 Gibson ES-335 Dot Reissue
Taylor BZ 714 Concert

For amps I use
Fender Vibro King,
1970's Marshall JMP 50 with
Old Marshall 1970 4x12 Slant Cab with 25 watt Celestion greenbacks
Peavey 5150,
66 and 65 Fender Blackfaced Super Reverb amps.
Mesa Boogie Triaxis and Stereo Simul-Class 2:ninety
2 ADA 2x12 cabs with 25 watt Celestions greenbacks
Fender Deluxe Reverb
Peavey Special 130

Pedals
TS9 Tube screamer
Maxon OD9
Electro Harmonix memoryman
Arion chorus
Carl Martin compressor

for recording
Apple Dual 2.7 Ghz G5
Logic Pro 7 (all mixing and effects are done in Logic)
Presonus Firepod
Motu Micro Lite
Mackie HR 824 monitors

As far as production goes every thing is recorded and mixed in Logic Pro 7. I sometimes sequence the drums from scratch or I use Apple jam packs which are pre recorded sampled drums. All other instruments I play live. Logic offers great keyboard and instrument sounds which I access using my keyboard controller.

Thanks
so much...little by little the CD is getting finished. I am now looking into going into the studio to redo sampled and sequenced drums with live Miami drummer extrodinare Lewis Rainbow. This will truly bring an added depth and dimention to the recording process.
