Hi Folks,

I just pieced a 4-minute demo videotape for my band. So much of my tone is defined by David's gizmos that I thought it might be interesting to post this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFa4MZuF ... rofilepage

My ES-335 (with Barden pickups) is at various points going through an LTD-SR w/mod board, DDLG and DD w/mod board. All of the ODs are set for boost with volumes above unity gain. The amp cooker is on all the time with a roughly 2db boost. The amp is a 10-watt, mid-60s Guild Thunder One with a Ragin' Cajun speaker. Amp volume is between 9-10:00 which is the edge of breakup with the amp cooker goosing the front end. The amp is miked with a Sennheiser e-906 ("normal" toggle switch position) and is going through the PA with the EQ flat.

The Guild is a fairly mid-heavy little amp. I'm thinking about trying an EQ pedal to notch out a bit of the 1.6k range to clarify the overall tone a bit. My struggle for great tones is apparently going to be a lifelong process. Sigh! I'd certainly be interested in any and all feedback. Thanks!

Thanks for the clip Bob!

Which input are you using on the amp?

I'm using the normal (not high gain) input.
