Andy Mckee - Drifting cover by Tim Western

Cover of Andy Mckee's Drifting - recorded on a Freshman Apollo 3 DC with built in Fishman Duel Blend pickup system. One of the most fun solo guitar pieces I've learned to play, and shows how great Freshman guitars can sound! http://soundcloud.com/timwesterton

The guitar's run straight into my MacBook. The internal mic - and cheeky bit of reverb added give it a pretty clean sound for a photobooth take!

Also note: I'm not actually left handed - photobooth automatically flips the video and I forgot to change it afterwards!

nice job. have you used any effects while recording this? what does this guitar sound like raw? im thinking of buying one and love this sound (though i appreciate a lot of that comes from the player!!)

[heresy123]

@Buffetslayer666 the only effect i used was adding a touch of reverb after it was recorded, other than that it's just plugged straight into my macbook. i think the guitar sounds great just acoustic as well as plugged in, my brother's got a similar freshman too and it sounds great. i'd definitely recommend them
