See the ‘Interesting bits and go-to sections’ information below. Welcome to the show! It’s just me this week as we’re still Covid-separated while the UK remains in lockdown. Dan is making vids too! I’ve taken the opportunity to do something that I’ve been putting off for ages: fitting new pickups to this here Epiphone Casino. The guitar was originally bought unseen on eBay when Dan and I were doing the Budget Guitar Rig Challenge video: I wanted a guitar that would remain useful to the show, that we didn’t already have. As I soon discovered, the pickups were: a) a little bit lacklustre perhaps, and b) slightly more microphonic than I would expect. So I decided to change them. It’s all explained in the video, so enjoy! The signal chain for the board: Guitar, Tweedy, Maiden D, Page DS, split with GigRig Humdinger One side goes Humdinger, Flight Time, Harmonious Monk, CXM1978 right Other side is Humdinger, CXM1978 left Left and right out of the CXM1978 to the stereo power amp Questions arising… Q: Why no dB meter? A: It’s a PITA to move. I’m playing at normal TPS volumes – somewhere around 95-103dB ish, using our regular meter. Q: Why are you using this weird rig and not normal amps? A: A bit of fun and experimentation. It’s been bubbling to the surface for a while. Q: Why aren’t you using the Free The Tone Future Factory stereo delay in the stereo rig? A: I just wanted delay on one side. Q: Are the amps and pedals definitely set the same for the before and after comparisons? A: EXACTLY the same. I was super careful not to move a single thing between the two sessions. Q: How did you record and process the guitar sounds? A: Sontronics Delta 2 ribbon mics on the cabs, plus a pair of stereo AKGC414XL in the room. All the mics have Neve 1084 or 1081 UAD plugins in a UAD Apollo 8p. I roll on a little bit of 10kHz and 3.2kHz to compensate for the dull room and give a bit of crunch back to the drives. Low cuts around 50Hz for the cab mics, 80Hz for the room mics. I also used a Teletronix LA-2A very subtly on the guitar master mix. I like it – I think it helps the dynamics get a tiny bit closer to what I’m hearing/feeling in the room. Q: Why get a hollow body for gain sounds? Surely this is dumb? A: Not really – all explained in the video.
