slimjimdom Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 Thought I'd give YouTube a shot. I had some problems with playback speeds but it seems to be resolved. Nothing impressive or extraordinary, just enjoying my Gibson. Here's the stuff BFG Limited (bullion burst) Blackheart Little Giant half stack Marshall Jackhammer distortion The videos came out a bit bass heavy but that probably has much to do with being recorded with my webcams built in mic. Ah well, pretty fun anyhow. SJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuitarJunkie Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Pretty cool. I assume the Jackhammer is on during this clip. I was thing about a Blackheart and was wondering what the dirty sound straight from the amp was like. BTW, here's one we did recently (right before the band split up). Kind of a cheesy song, but oh well... http://s374.photobucket.com/albums/oo183/gear4sale_photos/Band/?action=view¤t=ChinaGrove.flv The other guitar player is playing a Studio with ebony board, and stock 490R/498T pickups plugged into a Laney 100 watt tube combo. I'm using a Classic with Peter Florence pickups plugged into a Traynor YCV-40. For the solo, I used a Fulltone FatBoost for volume boost only.

slimjimdom Posted November 10, 2008 Author Share Posted November 10, 2008 Great video GJ!! Thanks for sharing that. Yeah the videos i have posted are all with the Jackhammer on. I haven't had much luck getting good dirty tones straight from the amp. Maybe it's just me or my settings or who knows... Could just be a lack of experience with tube amps in general. I have seen some great youtube vids of guys getting nice bluesy/classic dirt from these amps, I just can't seem to get it together. I haven't given up though. There are some other guys here with blackhearts and vids using them though. Again, cool vid AJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdriehuis Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 never really cared much for that sort of music but I do absolutely love that dirty sound. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
