Paulownia Tele

[lidesnowi]

Hi good people

Anyone tried a Paulownia body Tele?
Well i have one and i love it!

The guitar has a Warmoth Tele neck (an old one from 1992 )
The brigde pickup is a Seymour Duncan Holdsworth HB also from 1992
and the neck pickup is 67 Gibson T top!
Paulownia is the greatest tone wood ON EARTH IMHO.Warmoth should get some of that wood it's really amazing stuff !

I recorded a small clip noodling on some VH stuff with the axe.

I actually do really dig that sound. a good balance of modern and vintage i guess. sounds very "organic" to my ears. Why's the guitar mixed left and the reverb right? It sounds like an old beatles track, except there's only guitar so it doesn't really balance out. haha.
whoa. just got to the clean sound and it did a 180 on me.

what kind of amp setup you using? I would like to hear a little more sans chorus or reverb and more just natural sound of the guitar straight into an amp.

How about more details and pics of the guitar?

I was kind of thinking that it seemed appropriate doing the left right panning deal when playing this VH stuff?
It's only on the last clean part that i used chorus, on the dirty sound there is just some multi tap delays and a touch of reverb!
I like surprises thats why i did that 180 thing :laughing11:

The amp is a old 50 watt Marshall with some modds.

you'll have to excuse my ignorance on the VH reference.
it was just that the guitar was panned left but the reverb was still wide - it had this wierd spacial thing going on. But i'm really into mixing and nitpick things that don't need to be nitpicked. maybe it was the way it was panned that made it seem like there was a lot of reverb on the distorted track

Well i only had an half  hour studio time left at the Studio so i guess it was kind of a rush recording job arty07:

Regardless of all the little details, the bottom line is that this is a great guitar/amp combination! Sounds killer- hold on to it!
