Hmmm.... everything I have is on my LP through a Marshall. I have nothing with my Hamers through my Mesa... Guess I should change that.

I listened to the last three. Vic's is great stuff and I appreciate the CD! I listen in the car a lot.

The Graceland track is a really nice style, and I can think I can identify that Hamer sound now. The timbre is always perfect. Nice and bright and just a good song. The singing was really good too.

The Daytona, Whoa!! I appreciate more than anything just hearing the guitar, and what a sound. It sounds better than a Fender, I like the personality. Some of those dual notes come together really nice.

Kind of reminds me of the quality on Smashing pumpkins Siamese twins, not your original writing but the aesthetics. I always wonder all the influences that are meshed in someone's head when I hear something I particular like.

To fully appreciate art, you must understand the foundation it was built on. Most of us know music in multi directions back several decades, but some of this new stuff seems to have a strange foundation.

Thank you! You just mentioned one of my favourite album of all times... ;)

Seriously about the the Album? :unsure: It is one of my favorites. Billy Corgan and the drummer Chamberlin were both big Rush fans growing up I later found out.

What are some of your other influences? You have a good ear for ultra melodic pieces imo.

Will you indulge some more specifics on the Daytona and I am curious to how your recorded the piece. It captures every bit of the harmonics crystal clear.

Absolutely serious, anyway I think the correct name of the album was Siamese Dream: I love that album, songs like Mayonaise, Luna or Spaceboy changed my musical universe. I have multiple influences, I like almost every kind of music, especially new wave and grunge. Just to mention someone: The Smiths, Siouxsie, The Cure, Joy Division, Alice in Chains, Pearl Jam, Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana, Soundgarden, P.J. Harvey, Depeche Mode, Grant Lee Buffalo, R.E.M, Pink Floyd, King Crimson, Bjork, Sigur Ros, Interpol, Editors, Sonic Youth, Radiohead and many many others.

Talking about the track, my Daytona is a maple neck and I replaced the original pickups with a set of Bare Knuckle Irish Tour (amazing single coil sound). As pedals I used just a tiny bit of compression, delay and reverb (Diamond Compressor, Strymon Timeline and Blue Sky Rev), the amp was my Masotti X100M, clean channel. Masotti is an italian brand, very famous here, they make boutique amps, also Brett Garsed has one of their amps, here is their website:

We have similar tastes. I started a metal head and went into Post Punk, Machester with Joy Division. Love the Smiths, Chameleons, The Church, Sad Lovers and Giants. Tasteful Melancholy is me.. On the other end I grew up a Rush fan and got into British classic metal and some of the LA bands like Dokken, so I liked technical but melodic, no monotone metal. Type O Negative was a big influence too.

I could hear the Post Punk influences. Thanks for the specs, great guitar.

This is something I worked on off and on for a few years. Written by a skating buddy, I played my Hamer Cruise and XT standard on this song. More of my skating footage from the 70's

Right on! That's some serious Lords of Dogtown happening there!

I am going to make a downloadable CD .iso and a mp3 folder of all the audio (I plucked audio from the videos too) and normalize the levels. Be sure to include the guitar so I can put them in the file tags to be displayed when the song is playing.

Great stuff. Much better than what you would get from most guitar forums.

just get them on your computer and sign up for a soundcloud account. Then just upload and paste the provided link.

Known where they are located and in a common codec like mp3.
