great playing, Nathan. nice tone as well. anong guitar and pickups ng guitar na gamit mo sa recording? factors din kasi yun e. thanks!
almost all my rhythm tracks (i did 2 for each song) were done on the sunburst tele with antiquity pickups into the clean channel of the vc30 with the ds1 providing all the dirt. drive at around 2 o'clock, tone between 9 and 10 o'clock, level at 10 o'clock, seeing eye mode. except for teacher where i used the '52ri with texas specials for the 2 rhythm tracks, 1 track with the keeley ds1, another with the zoom ultra fuzz set to emulate a buzzy fuzz face with dying batteries. since then, nagswap na ng pickups yung 2 guitars.
the leads for teacher and luna were played on the 'burst tele with the keeley bd2 (drive at 11 o'clock, tone at 12 o'clock and level at 11 o'clock) for extra oomph. yung lead nung was pagtatalo was a 2004 ibanez S470 (dimarzio breed at the neck, steve's special at the bridge) with the keeley ds1 into the crunch channel of the vc30, drive and tone at 10 o'clock, level at 2 o'clock, ultra mode.
basically, my old live setup. no eq'ing on the guitars. or kung meron man, konting konti lang kasi i have a rough mix of all the songs without the final vocals and leads, just my rhythm tracks, which sounded exactly like they did in the final mix. tracked dry with two mics, one in front of the amp, dead center, and one a few feet away for ambience. a little reverb added was on mixdown. lahat yata ng crunch rhythms were played on the bridge pickup.
