Slow Bluesy Pink Floyd kind of thing...

I mic'd an amp for the fist time on YouTube. The rhythm is my Special American Mahogany Strat going through a Boss V-wah PW-10 for the Uni-vibe effect and finally to my Ampeg SS-35. I mic'd the speaker with a AKG Perception 120. I added no post production effects. Getting good sound from an amp is hard work! The lead was recorded my usual way, direct from my GNX3.

This is a long slow one so a special thanks to those who hung in there for the whole thing :)

Hey nice video. I was woundering ... how do ya like that strat of yours. I ask because I've been looking into getting a strat, and this one is not in stock at my local GC. I have been messing around with the deluxes and the standards, and was wondering why you chose this over those options I am really into hendrix, stevie ray vaughn, and john Frusciante. Do you think this strat would meet my strat tone needs? I've heard mixed things about the mohogony and pickups (sound good here though)

@JME033089 It's an expensive decision I'd be afraid to advise as haven't tried the deluxes or standards. I like my American special but it doesn't stay in tune for shit when I use the whammy. I think it has the same hardware as the deluxe. Good luck. They're all great guitars.

can you please help me out, how do i run my zoom hd8 through my amp head??? i'm an idiot when it comes to this kinda stuff, please help me

[MrLeedsman]

@MrYomom66 ur amp will need a line out or head phone out to one of the hd's inputs. skip that and hit shift and effect insert scroll up or down and ise the thumb wheel for all kinds of cool sounds

Hey I've been watching your videos for quite a while and I love em. Just wondering though, why didn't you mic the lead aswell?

[MrLeedsman]

The sound direct from the GNX is far better, far easier, and in stereo. Although this lead was accidentally recorded in mono

Thanks
