@MrFrankfabio We recorded this using a room mic capturing Bobby's Phil Jones amp in combination with an Avalon U5 for a direct. I do not recall which mic I used for the room.

[bodydeep]

@cicciobass87 Yes, you can find his new EP and instructional DVD at his website listed in the credits!

[cicciobass87]
