I bought a Behringer guitar for $30 at a pawn shop. You can kill me now.

:D

I could get the action at a decent height on the cheapie Behringer, but not as low as my Revs (duh!), so in a moment of wisdom, I decided it would be cool to have it as a dedicated Open-G tuning. The lo-fi (read: cheap) pickups give me the raw sound I like for distorted slide.

So I decided to record something to test the sound and eventually ended up with this:

Yeah, bad slide technique, but screw it. It was fun.

Gear: Behringer Strat-clone tuned in open-G, J-Station with Tweed patch, Univox Hi-Flyer bass, Bonham drums I made from my home-made Bonham loops.

I hope you guys dig. 8)

Very nice, Kerc! I don't think it's bad slide technique, it's supposed to sound like that.:AOK:
Thanks!:D
P.S. Glad you edited out the "sloppy" part... it wasn't sloppy at all. Kudos!!:beer:

Hey Kerc, pretty cool!! Sounded like a slightly less primal version of some R.L. Burnside.
