Test pressing of the new [redacted].

It sounds great, I can't wait to post more about it! Also in 20 years of being in bands, this is the first actual vinyl record I've ever been on!

You mean like what guitar gear did I use, or how did we actually record it?

Ha, both of you don’t mind :)

My guitar: EGC standard tuned down to F, quantum mystic distortion, 4x12 with an x pattern of v30s and Fane A60s. Strings were. 20 to .86.

Other guitar I think was through a marshall dsl40, or it might have been a Hizumitas pedal thru an SD power stage 200.

Mics were an sm57, e609, and one other i can't recall

We did it in our practice space

Going for some Jesus Lizard vibes there. Duane Denison would be a fan lmao.

From what i remember, Corg is a Matamp player? But definitely want those deep recording rigs.

Matamp GT120 with a Quantum Mystic distortion

Much respect from the "high headroom to to breaking up" crowd. My regular drive is your clean.

Everyone who sees it goes "OH SHIT DOPESMOKER" but like...nah, its a fucking blues amp. They just did a lot of studio magic to get that tone

[–] PaulSmackage@hexbear.net 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's a fucking fantastic amp. I always wanted to play a show with a Hiwatt, but the few times i got to play Matamp i was thrilled.

Yo the new Hiwatt Super Leeds are killer solid states, got one last year when they first dropped

[–] PaulSmackage@hexbear.net 1 points 1 month ago

I didn't even know they dropped something that cheap. I'll take a look next time i'm at a shop. My AD30 wants a friend.

[–] PaulSmackage@hexbear.net 2 points 1 month ago

All in, every piece of gear that you remember lmao
