Thanks. Sorry for the lack of info. I recorded this on my Boss BR1200. The rhythm and lead are on an Epiphone Sheraton, through a Mesa Lone Star on the clean channel.
Funny story about micing that amp. I've been struggling to get a sound that fairly represents the Mesa live, and having limited success. Recently, while trying to get the right mic positioning, I found a sound I really liked, then discovered I was actually running through a vocal mic at the other end of the room. (My kid had his band over and left the vocal Sure plugged into the Boss instead of my amp mic.)
Anyway, I moved the amp mic to a similar position and got this sound, which I like as it really makes the amp and guitar sound crisp and alive. I guess I discovered room mic'ing by accident.
The bass is just my Squier P bass through a fender bassmaster amp. And the drums are just the patterns built into the Boss, manipulated in rather clumsy fashion by me.
As far as the playing style, it was pretty casual. Had the horn riffs stuck in my head, tried them over a standard shuffle, then goofed around with some blues and jazz chords to get a rhythm I liked, trying for a bit of a syncopated feel.
The Boss hard drive recorder is really good pre-mixing and mastering, so I was able to add EQ on the rhythm and bass as needed, plus some reverb and the panning noted. I used the soft compression setting in the mastering toolkit, and the rest is just a mix of fun, some sweat and a bit of vino blanco.
Thanks for the comments.
