Hello again everyone. I was testing some guitar tones a while ago to use on my band's upcoming album, and I jammed out to Kent's version of Poundcake. This is similar to the solo he played. I've talked to Kent numerous times, and he's a really cool guy -- I hope he'll return with some new videos soon!

Gear:
MRJ Custom Guitar, with GFS VEH bridge pickup
Live Wire Cables
Peavey 5150 (Block Letter) Head
Peavey 5150 Cabs
Software detune effects
Just ask if you have any questions about my rig.

@StonnardBand Thanks!

Dude how did you mix the sound so well? did you do stereo tracks and what kind of mics did you use?

[MRJSTUDIOS]

@mjamgochian Thanks!! Well, I do use stereo tracks for my guitars. I use one dry track in the middle, and 2 copies panned left and right. I add effects to the 2 copy tracks, and then mix them in with the original.

Same as Kent Carlevi, you are like his twin.

@MRJSTUDIOS I`m not joking, you should play more Van Halen songs.

@HolyGfunnies It's from an old ultra cheap import strat copy. It's super light weight, and I have no idea what it's actually made of.

[HolyGfunnies]

@MRJSTUDIOS where did you get that strat body from? what's it made of?

[MRJSTUDIOS]
