    Default Christmas chill

    Christmas is near, here's hoping all have the weather they want, and get a chance to spend some time with loved ones.
    Justa has convinced me that reverb and tremelo are a good thing, so I took a shot at it and called it "Christmas chill".
    I hope someone can relax to it, and Merry Christmas to all.

    Ah yes, party time at the Christmas Sock Hop. Boys on that wall . . . girls over there. A quick comb through the pompadour and hubba hubba, let the festivities begin! That had a really nice American Graffitti vibe to it, Glen - - nice work.

    Wasn't that on the Beach Boys first Christmas album? Well, it shoulda been! Very nice, Glenn!

    Thanks, Nels, appreciate you taking the time to listen to this bit of goofiness...and...
    I really need to thank Justa too! He's been using some good sounds I hadn't heard in a while and got me inspired again. Funny how I forget the old sounds I loved long ago...anyway...
    Odd how everyone hears things in a way they can relate to...
    I just wanted some snow for Christmas and played a song to hopefully get a little weather to pass this way...
    But when I played it back I was reminded of the sounds of the Everly Brothers...maybe the Buckinghams... maybe even Eddie Cochran.. but I never thought of American Graffitti until you mentioned it.
    I guess everyone hears music in their own way, just like we all see colors with our own eyes.
    Thanks, DVM, I won't be able to play that EVH like you, but I enjoy trying to re-create some of the sounds I grew up with...
    I have to admit I really never thought of the Beach Boys while playing it, either, although I see the similarities to all the aforementioned now as I listen again.
    Hey, guys, please keep your fingers crossed for some snow for our kids, that's all I really was asking for when I played this...

    Nice Glenn! I played it as I drove home from a local production of A Christmas Carol in the snow. Maybe some will blow down the jet from out here and your way! Thanks for the tunes.

    Well, maybe my Beach Boys comparison was a bit of an exaggeration, but the reverb/trem combo definitely had that Southern California surf vibe workin'! I gotta go fire up the AD30VT on the Black 2x12 model, turn the effects knob to Tremolo Reverb, and see what my Strat can do with those vintage tones!

    Very cool tune.
    It catches the christmas mmod perfectly.

    I just sit here with my son and he seems to enjoy that beautiful music, too.

    No you were right Vood. It has a really nice Santa Surf vibe.

    Thanks Oldy!

    That was a memory maker for sure and you really captured the sound and season. Thanks!
