Almost everything I do is after or during my beer sessions..haha But on this track I'm using the Wolfgang(only makes sense ya think)..and plugged into the GNX4 and direct usb to the computer,oh yeah and one Ryobi cordless drill..lol. After bangin nails all afternoon I couldn't get motivated enough to mic through on of the amps..still tweaking the VH tone but seems to sound better mic'd through the Line 6....Glad you liked it kinda rough I thought, might redo it amped.

I'm listening as I type this. Flippin' SWEET, man! Tone sounds huge through my little computer speakers. Jeez, I gotta practice. You even managed to get the drill to be in key. Awesome, just awesome!










Note To Self:never jam with Zeusse after he's had a few. It would put me to shame, and I'd hate to have to turn my guitars into firewood.

To answer your question SuperSwede dipped into some Canadian beer Moosehead only 8or9 I think..darn I can't remember. And Ted S to answer yours I mixed that with Pro Tracks Plus and got the backer from bt forums...get most of my backers from there. And to get the drill in key as close as I could had to throw it in reverse, in forward it was way to high probably a high C...LOL...Thanks for listening folks I got more crazy stuff to post I'm really a nutcase you might be sorry you let me in here:D
