Anyone up for a blues jam?

Watch eBay and Craigslist for your guitars!

Right. Used to be you watched the pawn shops, but these days it's possible to fence things across the country where they'll never be seen again and can't be traced back to the seller.
 
I'll be keeping my eye out certainly. Don't want to hijack the thread tho....

Blues jam  :headbang:

I'll be back in action asap anyway. Hmmns, maybe this is an excuse to save up for my first Warmoth eh ?  :guitarplayer2:
 
that seriously blows ass, Panthur! I'm so sorry to hear that. I think it goes without saying that I hope everything comes to a positive resolve.

about the jam, the second person playing needs to be much louder. maybe if you could turn the gain up on that track, or maybe reduce the volume of all the tracks a little bit, it would help the issue. that aside, the playing sounds great! I can't wait to hear what others sound like!

You might still need to save up, but perhaps a little less if you keep your eye on the Craig's List for your area. Every once in a while you'll come across someone who started a project and never followed through. The part(s) often go for bargain basement prices. I'm going to get a mahogany Strat body for $100 this evening.

Can't beat that with a stick.

I can adjust it - I thought it sounded OK on my system, but I'll listen again. It's pretty mid scooped, but I thought it was loud enough. I'll boost it a couple dB.

this is a work in progress - I'll try to keep all the levels equal, but differences in tone and eq means that so tracks are going to cut through more than others. I'm not going to go crazy trying to eq stuff.
 
just bumping this up again - a reminder - anyone can get in on this at any time

Man, I don't know if I did this right. I recorded mine on one that has 3 or 4 guys playing before me. Here it is....

Let me know if I screwed this up

By the way, this was played on the February GOTM (see photo in sig) through Pod Farm on the "Ain't Talkin' Bout Love" setting using a high gain Soldano instead of the Marshall with the Variac. Played through the bridge pup which is a DiMarzio Super Distortion S.
 
I'm loving this, sounds great. That bass solo (the 3rd person, I assume it's a bass and some effects) is awesome, loving the auto pan, wasn't expecting it at all. I will try to get in on this asap.  :guitarplayer2:
 
thanks man. there's actually no effects. there's two amps, each going to cabs of their own. one for high frequencies, one for low frequencies (stole the idea from Billy Sheehan). the bass side, it's a 150w Fender Bassman tube head going to an Acoustic 360 Horn bass cab with a rackmount compressor. on the treble side, it's an Orange OR-120 with the gain all the way up going to a Leslie 147 rotary cabinet with a rackmount compressor and a parametric EQ to further sculpt the highs and mids.

...now here's the insane part, I was not actually plugged up to a physical amplifier of any sort. I was plugged into an M-Audio Fast Track Ultra that goes directly into my computer, and from there, I did all the amp stuff with Amplitube 3. it did all the amp modeling and recording. I fiddled with settings for hours, swapping heads and cabinets, trying different effects, listening to different speaker sizes, changing speaker sizes, changing tubes in amps, changing pre-amps, tinkering with the noise gate, until I came up with something I liked. this program is amazing.
 
Ok, battling on in the face of adversity.. I've actually had a go at this !. I'm not happy with it, but then I'm not using my usual gear (read a few posts back, it got nicked), so I don't think it's all that bad for a guitar plugged directly into a shitty soundcard hehe, was fun battling the latency  :headbang1:

This is everyone + me (i've tacked mine on at the end)

Bumping this up.

Come on, guys, the first Unofficial Warmoth Blues Jam is coming to an end.

actually there are only 5 players so far...

It's really sad that on a music forum, especially one geared towards guitarists, that we could only get 5 people involved in a simple blues jam. Sad, sad, sad!

I'm surprised as well, with so many active members and so many gorgeous builds you'd think there would be more.

I've got no talent. None whatsoever. An excellent recording setup, and many high end plugins, but no talent to play the guitar/bass. :sad:
That's why I don't enter.

Also, I'm really not too big on Blues. :dontknow:
