• Guys, we've spent considerable money converting the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and we have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!

Another clip with me playing a Howard Roberts Fusion

Nice composition and excellent playing, the tone is good it sounds like it is somewhat processed, what is in your signal chain?

I have an HR that i like very much as well. I generally play it thru a Mark IV or a twin reverb and add a little compression now and then.

Thanks. And yes, even if it´s a live recording - and nothing is digitally processed after the recording we made "live" in our rehearsal local - I run the guitar through a Boss Overdrive3, only a touch of a Boss Chorus1 and a Boss DigitalDelay3 and then into a Fender Blues Deville 2x12, using it´s reverb. So those old analog pedals is the "processing", so to say.

thanks for the clip and info, again sounds great and all of your players sound like real pros. your signal chain is pretty standard without a lot of bells and whistles, just good playing. glad to see the jazz genre well represented.


peace :note

Thanks a lot. Some of the band members actually are pros. Our bass player has been working with music at a large theatre for many years. That´s good for us of course, but there´s a problem I never thought of with those guys, which can be heard in the beginning of the Czesnici clip. Since it´s only a recorded rehearsal, he just don´t make his absolute best. When we played that song live some week later, he suddenly sounded like Jaco Pastorius. I´m definitely not a pro; I have to play the best I can whenever I do it. :(
