Well worth the Gremlin bites along the way. Sounds great too! Is that you playing? I'm jealous. SR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curtisa Posted March 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 Guilty, your honour. In one way or another all the guitars in that track is that beastie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prostheta Posted March 30, 2016 Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 Agreed. Everything sounds nice in the mix, and great legato phrases in the solo! Do you think the clarity came more from the scale lengths, the pickups a mix of these or perhaps something else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curtisa Posted March 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 Definitely the pickups. The Alumitones have a massive peak in the upper mids, almost like a wah pedal pushed all the way forward. I had to slug them with an R-C low pass filter to get them under control. They still cut like crazy in a mix as dense as that without any additional help. The sister build to this one, with the EMG 57/60 combo isn't anywhere near as bright.
