Ha! Tele-ish now inbound.
It sounds great! I have enjoyed all your takes and they all suite the BT very well. I think you managed to be true to the original feel, but gave it your own chili!
Congrats! I love seeing how the BT collabs come together and more and more fretters jump on 'em.

I'll probably giv'r tomorrow ..
Guys, you all sound terrific. I've been in a slump lately, so insanely busy at work and with the son's basketball schedule I've been remiss in the guitar department. But this has got me juiced a bit. I may take a stab tonight at the first part. Thanks all.

These have been great! I wanted to take a whack at this classic, too, but didn't really feel like starting a new one--just wanted to noodle around over the main verse. So I cut three verses out of the middle of the BT with Audacity and recorded over that. Recorded using my LP Std and my Blues Junior. A bit of reverb is used throughout. Beyond that, the setup was:
Verses 1 & 3 - Bridge pickup, through my Phase90 clone and then my Rat clone with the gain at about two-thirds.
Verse 2 - Turned off the Phase 90 but left the Rat as is. Switched to the neck p'up with the treble rolled all the way off. Going for that EC "woman tone". The Rat has a nice sustain for that.

: Really enjoyed your take, helliot! A strong nod to the original, especially the lead in, but with your own tone and style. Well done!!
A few details on your setup for that would be appreciated (nudge, nudge)....

Great job kicking ace there H !:
Thanks guys. Glad you enjoyed it. Sorry about the lack of info. I recall back when I was a kid learning this off Abraxas by dropping the needle, slowing the album down, then picking it up and doing it all over again about a gazillion times. When I was all done, it still sounded like a shadow of Carlos, and ever since I've just tried to do my own thing while respecting his genius.
Yes, this is the Flextone on a Modern Class A setting with a touch of flange and echo and lots of verb. No mid tone to speak of. Guitar's a PRS through the neck pickup.
I further tortured the poor signal with some compression and delay on the BR-1200 and added the kinda cheesey but retro panning.
It is the same BT, but because I like things to sound raw and live, I used a set of mastering tools on the Boss called Live Rock Band. Way beyond me what it does, but it ends up sounding more live and edgy sometimes.
Also, I couldn't get what I wanted with my usual mic positioning, so put the mic halfway down the room. I think it added sort of a big sound, but it's all relative.
Hey, who's next?
