30 sec. clip of me playing my mark-I

[Spankin Allison]

This is at home,in what's gonna be my new music room,of couse its not set up yet.
I get the reverb from a Holygrail + and the amp is a custom made 2 watter from D-lab,the speaker is a governor 12" "red coat"..
what do you think of my tone?..loll not my playing.To tell you the truth i'm kinda new to the "Clean" side of electric guitar...but i'm very motivate..Btw this is somthing i made on the spot

Thanks
Frank

Hey, Frank--

I thought it sounded great! Now, based just on the sound, it seems like a fairly large room that is very "hard" acoustically. What it will sound like when you or if you get other folks playing in there at volume is going to be interesting.

You might have to fiddle with either surface textures or wall/ceiling angles then.

sounds good. much better without seeing your tightie whities too....pretty guitar.(boo hoo, i used to have one just like it)

Sounded good, I think I'm going to like Mosrite guitars. Does the Vibrato work well?

Hey Frank,

Yes the tremolo work well,but for the first 2 days of playing i tought the arm was in the way when i was reaching for the vol and tone knob.But now i figured how...by keeping it close to the strings.Btw my tremolo arm is very tight..so where ever i place it,it stays..not like my mustang or jag-stang,where the arm is all loouse in is socket.
Thanks

I know a guy who covered one wall of his studio with those thick-paper egg cartons that he got unused somewhere. I never heard the room prior to his doing that, so I can't speak to how that modified the sound of the room, but the guy who did it liked it!

This is a subject with a ton of variables and subjectives, but I have always been interested in how the SHAPE of a room affects the sound. I read that Sam Phillips made the ceiling of his Sun records studio in some strange configuration to modify the sound, and, luckily, the firms who used that space after Sun left never changed the weird ceiling. So now that it is a studio again, that sound can be replicated.

I also read that the Stax sound studio, being in an old movie theater with a sloping floor, had a distinct sound because of that.

If you are ever in Nashville, the old Ryman Auditorium certainly has a "room sound," that even I could notice, and I wear two hearing aids.

Alright! A little off topic, If I had a Mustang I'd modify the vibrato bar to screw in. I don't like it when they just hang there.
