Ive been trying to document more of the guitars through recordings, as well as play my own compositions. A lot of people have been asking to hear the guitars, and its a lot of fun to record them so its a win win all around! Here’s one i did the other day with some friends using my laminate 14 7 string:
Guitar: Laminate 14 7 string model- w Dimarzio PAF® 7 DP759 pickups. I used the neck pickup with volume on full, slight 10-20% roll off on the tone knob. Strings are Ernie ball custom set (14-52 w 72 on low B).
Amp: Very OLD model polytone with a little chorus and delay effect added.
Mic: Zoom H2N recorder on the bass and drums. Older model zooms on guitar and sax. Certainly rough sounding- the zoom on my guitar was distorting a bit. I will continue to refine my zoom techniques, but good enough for a quick blog post!
