Long Time No Post
Hello boys and girls.
I have not posted for a while but here I am again.
I have been quite busy with my new client, David Forbes who is doing 12 original songs with me.
All of his music is very guitar centered and that's great with me.
David is an awesome Guitar and Bass player and his song writing is also impressive.
So far we have 5 songs down to click tracks. One has real drums.
So we are now overdubbing guitar tracks and editing.
The plan is to get all the songs as close as we can then have the drummer come in and knock off as many as he can. Will also do Bass guitar at the same time.
David also wants percussion, keyboards and piano in some of the tracks.
So we have lots to do as he wants this project to be done by Christmas.
In other news;
I have acquired a vintage Rivera Amplification amp head from the great Terry Manning at Compass Point Studios. I cant remember what model it is but its an incredible sounding guitar amp, So far I have been running it through my 2x12 Sonic closed back cab with nice results. The amp itself is quite different from others that I use in that it is very tweak able (lots of knobs). Similar to the Mesa Boogies but the big difference is that this thing sounds incredible. It is all tube and is actually 2 amps in one that can be run as stereo left and right or double the power.
It also has its own reverb tank for both channels, the reverb is by Hammond and is by far the smoothest reverb that I have.
AND
I have also aquired a Baldwin R1 series Baby Grand Piano.
Long story on the piano that I will include with photos of the Rivera and the Baldwin.
I am also not taking any big projects at the moment as I am now working on my stuff again. Details to follow.
Fun Fun Fun.................................
