New Site, New Clips

There's a new In re Rock 'n' Roll website - Just what you've been waiting for.

Check it out at http://www.inrerocknroll.com

With it you'll find a new clip recorded direct with a Boss GT-8 and a G&L ASAT.

Lately I've been working on a high gain heavy metal type tone with the ol' GT-8. Although the GT-8 seems to be the modeler of choice for many high gain players, I have had more luck creating a variety of different classic low-medium gain tones with the machine.

I have found nothing that better compliments the jangly tone of a Rickenbacker, for instance, see e.g., http://www.inrerocknroll.com/tunes/OldSkool.mp3 and http://www.inrerocknroll.com/tunes/JangleRic.mp3.

Another favorite that I haven't been able to imitate with another set up is a quasi-rhodes tone. http://www.inrerocknroll.com/tunes/ModalSt.mp3 - This one has a bit better playing, but I prefer the tone of http://www.inrerocknroll.com/tunes/CoolJoe.mp3

Playing around with the model suggestive of the qualities of a Marshall Plexi, you can obtain some excellent classic rock tones - sounds great coupled with some modulated delay - http://www.inrerocknroll.com/tunes/GT85.mp3, http://www.inrerocknroll.com/tunes/GT8Rok.mp3

Also, don't forget the newest one at http://www.inrerocknroll.com/tunes/8.mp3

Much fun to be had by all. I'll keep you posted on my quest for a good heavy tone.
