Here's a new funk guitar cut...check it out...

The guitar is a custom strat built by Kevin Kaufman, a great luthier and friend in West Palm Beach, FL. Kevin used to repair all of the late Jaco Pactorius' basses and also produced the Jaco signature bass for Fender. The pickups in my "Kauftone strat" are Seymore Duncans 59's, neck and Tom Anderson PAF's, bridge. The amp is a Peavey Special 130 single 12' 130 watt RMS combo.

Everything was recorded at DIGITAL SOUNDSCAPES STUDIOS in Lake Worth,FL.

The horns and all other instruments are sequenced using Emagic Logic Audio Platinum 3.5 on a Mac G3 and a Roland Sound Canvas SK-88 Pro.

I recorded the guitar using a Shure SM 57 mic , DBX 160x compressor/limiter, Lexicon PCM 80 digital effects processor (reverb), Rocktron Intellifex effects processor(flange/delay), Studiomaster P7 32x8 mixing console and Fostex RD 8 ADAT. I then burned the mix to a Sony A7 Dat and then to a Tascam CDRW 5000.

The whole thing start to finish took 2 hours maybe.


Thanks, Frank Axtell

Jaco?? Now we're talking. Jaco was to the Bass what Jimi Hendrix was to guitar

Very cool guitar, Frank! I like this! I really like synth horn arrangement!


Peace,
