Hey there

Not the greatest but my first go at recording.

A wee noodling.

Nice noodle. Bit rough on the ears though, I think you are clipping a bit???

My thoughts too.... Using PC speakers as reference and they are just not that good!!

Cool, as someone who just *cannot* make a slide sound in tune, I am envious!

It may not be the greatest recording ever, but you can clearly hear how good your slide technique is.

The slide is strong in this one.
Yea, just a tad on the loud side, but cool for first attempt!

I'm a bit embarrassed and chuffed!

I've always thought I was a little bit shit!

Cheers guys!!

Turn the pre-amp gain down... a lot.

You are my kind of guitar player.

The musical gear used:

52 RI tele into Cdog made Tweedy Tourist pedal into Deluxe clone. (Clone at low volume....using Tweedy to get the 5E3 drive)

A slide.

Recording gear:

The mic that's attached to my webcam.....into Audacity.

Hung the mic off the doorknob of PC cupboard in front of the amp speaker.

A lot of that over loaded sound actually is the sound of the amp. I had the volume sensitivity of the mic down.

I like my gaininess!!

Good stuff! You're in Porirua, from memory? If you need a hand I'm happy to come over with a mic and an interface to help with recording

(which also allows me to perve at your gear

)
