WCR Moore/Green set, the video
I've been playing these for well over a month now and I keep reaching for this guitar, so I guess I've found what I'm looking for. Got 4 sets of very good pickups on the shelf now, oh well.

This is the set at it's cleanest, which is where I'm interested in playing these days. I love the tone of them. I think it comes across pretty well in the video, although the camera adds some heavy compression.

Re: WCR Moore/Green set, the video
Hi mate ...
You've been in Deutschland for a certain time?
If you'll be here again, you'll be invited for a coffee or some drinks at my home ... promised!
... and a nice jam of course!
I'm a WCR fan since I've got my Fillmores back in 2004 ( I guess ), but that sound of your G/Ms are attracting me more than I could tell!

EDIT: Vid doesn't work for me right now.

Re: WCR Moore/Green set, the video
Haven't been back in a decade, but used to go every year, hiking and skiing with some downtime in the cities. I'm hoping to get back and do another tour and take the ICE this time! I've seen in in various bahnhof but haven't had the chance!

Cheers!

Just improvising. Making it up as I go along. I try to see how long I can go before I crash!

Edit: It's based on Drifting, but kind of just going my way with it.

I think they were $325 for the set? I like them better than the manalishi's, but those we're much better than stock. They were a little more high output than I wanted, but the crunch tone on them was really very good.

The amp on the second video is a Tone King Imperial. Which is basically a blackface Deluxe Reverb. No pedals, just mic'ed and a little reverb on the board. The first is a pod trying to sound like a blackface cause it was just too hot to run the amps that day.

I haven't finished it. It's just a looping section in a "project" file right now. I just find most backing tracks annoying because there is too much going on in them. I need some empty space to think and play in. If I get to it though, sure, I'll post it.
