this is the 1st song i've recorded using a vintage Ibanez Artist i just purchased.
the story behind the song, is that back in 1979, i bought a brand new ibanez artist, and gigged with it for about 5 years, before i sold it to purchase my carvin. i had always regretted letting that guitar go, and just a few weeks ago, i found a 1977 ibanez artist, almost just like my original one, and i just had to nab it.
so, the song is telling the story in 3 parts...
1st part, the search for the guitar
2nd part, the recollection of the sound and feel of the original guitar
3rd part, celebration of the new found guitar.
hehehe
simple.
all the guitar parts are the ibanez artist.
The 1st (2) sections, with the cleaner guitar parts, are all thru a Barber Tone Press.
The Fuzzy-sounding guitar solo at the beginning, is the neck pickup thru the DDSS, with the tone rolled off on the guitar.
The heavy guitar rhythms, and the 3rd section solo, is all thru the Direct Drive super sport.
couldn't tell you what the settings on the pedals were, i change them on every track. it's a feel thing.
The bass is thru the Tone Press.
all guitar parts are double miced, using a ADK Hamburg as a 'room mic' on one side, and the Palmer Junction direct on the other side, typical for all 3 guitar parts.
the mic signal is fed thru an analog DBX compressor and tube mic preamp before hitting the convertor.
bass track was split into two tracks, using the Sansamp Bass DI as a splitter- one track straight off the Sansamp, and the other split to my mesa boogie (tweaked for the bass)- mic was fed thru an analog DBX compressor and tube mic preamp before hitting the convertor., and the 2 tracks were blended to one bass buss, with compression and limiting on it.
