Les Paul Custom caught on tape.

Here is a song I did using acoustic instruments, a Moog Synth, and my 58 Black Beauty as the lead instrument. Kind of a weird song, but I like the way the guitar sounds.

Re: Les Paul Custom caught on tape.

What kind of amp did you use to record your Custom ?

On that song, I used a Silvertone 1471. I have several little Danelectro, Silvertone, and some other vintage off brand champ type amps. They are perfect for recording, and sound great.
I also use an original TS-9. The combination seems to produce a nice cranked Marshall type tone at lower volume levels.

Overall, I have been trying to capture the sound of these old guitars through these cool little amps.

Thanks you guys!
There are also two other songs I posted at that site.
One is a 59 Junior, and the other is a 57 LP Special.

Re: Les Paul Custom caught on tape.

Kind of reminds me of Quadrophenia/Who By Numbers era Who

Re: Les Paul Custom caught on tape.

Some kind of Jimmy Page vibe in there with the acoustic stuff, in a good way.... still highly original!!
