thanks... will still take the Gibson LP custom over it.( my friend has 14 or 15 of em from 60's into early 70;s)...when you play a 68 all stock Gibson Les Paul custom..strait into a JTm 45. dimed... dont know if your sensory perceptions ever get back to normal..lol )so far the Orville is the off the charts one as far as PAF..the construction..the balance ..most importantly the sound....Got a Gibson arriving tomorow..then will be able to line the LP's up...really should do a demo of this gear...into dif amps...playing clean...maybe i could use my Ditto looper..
definitely..i do not do well on that new stuff. I will never forget playing that 68 Lp custom & a burst of late 50's..it all seems like craziness on what tone was..but the certain guitars just had the mojo..my buddy also has a early 60's that is just a dull sounding guitar..look..feels like the others but just has no resonance no ring that even sounded bad in comparison in a an amp
lol..its my busy season..this always happens in winter..then i go record all spring into fallDude--- you cant BUY ALL THE GUITARS-- believe me Ray and I have tried--- theres just to many --- pace your self play a few
Thank you..i almost went the youtube video route,,very seriously thought about a gear show last few months....But i want to post this gear with us playing all over the place soon... am a song writer..public speaker...non profit org fundraiser...a concert set er upper..for Original music..its my passion & they caged me now for 3 years..i dont think i would have but 3 guitars & 2 basses & 4 amps if i was still playing live..there just isnt time to do this..its fun but not as fun as being on a stage seeing if you can make em rock with ya..even if they don want to..
might do that LP shootout tho..if i can get time..have a nice spread of pickups..very interested in the clean..spent lots of time there first in this Lp experiment...then how it translates to the gain... seem to like a lower output ..like the amp to be at that level..then the guitar knobs are my control ..PAF style def are so dynamic & have a certain sound..& note bloom that factors into the great sound. The stuff we love growing up was played a lot cleaner before all the gain wars
grump..so true..Think sabbath,,p90's....i got the LPJ out a lil last night before bed..there seems to be a threshold in gain & output..where that sound is so full..even in the runs....those guys really had amazing picking technique..so glad they didn't have all the gain we do..it's taking 2 decades..but the gear..the approach..well..it's going back to what we grew up on..maybe it...us...it's dated...but man i like the music, ages like a fine wine...early Judas Priest...AC/DC....Free....Even Alex in early Rush..that was a semi hollow..Saw an old, Sweet ..ball room blitz song yesterday live footage...can we go back ? plz...i did South on P90's strait..into a Super Reverb..only just bumping it for leads..that tone you are hearing is my 74 Super Reverb in the sweet spot..this is the day J couldn't finish the song at the studio & things have been awful since...i kid you not..these voacals are in 1 take in 15 minutes..she hates the song..but i think it represents all things rock on a simplistic level & proves a fender amp can rock it's arse off !
thank you...we were just discussing again..how to do this !!
