As always, your tunes are so well crafted and performed.  I love the tone of your Bass on this track.

Well done all the way around!

-Eric

alright eric! thanks so much for listening.

real fun tune to track. came together really quickly, couple of days.

that bass is pretty aggressive, eh?!
i guess i think of the bass as being the pace of the race, and the guitars are like the whining engines. LOL

silly netflix, and their 'drive to survive' show, got me hooked in...

then i started going backwards in time, looking at previous seasons, and drivers, and history, 
"Schumacher" "Grand Prix", "Rush", "Ferrari race to Immortality", there are a few more, but man, what a legacy.

and so hard core. crazy mo fo's.

i used this guitar for all the tracks,
instead of switching out, i wanted a more smoother sound; i did switch amps and cabs, but used the same guitar.

hi nigel! thank you for commenting

the mix of guitars on this, is a kind of experiment....

the marshall model i used in the Iridium just made sense using the ibanez with the classic Super 80 pickups.

gave it an old school sound.

 

i've been experimenting with a LOT of cabinet IR's to match to the marshall model, with MY guitar setups, and i'm closing in on my very best choices.

this song is as much an experiment in cabinet ir's and 'less gain is more' approach than my previous stuff.


what's really interesting, is that, i'm using far less gain than i usually do, but in the mix, it sounds pretty saturated.
which i'm still coming to grips as to why it is that way.

it's a sound i've had in my head for a long time,
saturation, but without so much gain, not so much distortion.

Hi BB, classic rocker from you, like it. Makes me wanna learn the guitar ; )

Rik

howdy ho Rik!

thanks so much for checking this one out, i kind of feel like it's special for me,

because it came out so easy, as it was all fresh in my head when i recorded it.

it's like the images in my head just became immediate sonics,

and that doesn't happen all the time!!

 

 

and yes,

learn guitar.

 

you start now,

who knows how long til you are really good. i think it took van halen all of 4 years to get almost as good as he got, technique wise.
