Well done amigo.
Ok.  A month late.  You would think I put more time into it.  Hey, It's a take. :D  I had a little time away from work stuff today.

I liked your take, Charger.  Really laid back and in there.  Good stuff

Nice guitar work amigo.

A very late one from me. Only just discovered this fnj - will try to contribute more in future.

Excellent Jon, I love it.  I dig the deep bite that Vox has.
Thanks very much. I have given up with close micing of guitar amps as I have never once been able to get a good recording, I much prefer the sound of the amp in the room fo that “live” feel.

The vox is a strange amp. Has way too much midrange honk but that seems to have dissipated a bit in the recording.

Just an old hack fumbling along  :)

Just fucked my right shoulder again yesterday doing weights. Last time I had frozen shoulder I vowed I would stay away from the weights but ignored my own advice yesterday and now reaping the rewards of that stupidity.  Hopefully this isn’t frozen shoulder this time (lasted 3 years last time I had it, agony 24/7) Hoping this is just a trapped nerve or pulled muscle.  Fortunately, or not depending on you preference, I can still play guitar...just tried it today  :)
Nice Jon!

You haven't lost a thing.

Nice touch and room mic sounds great. Cranked?

Wow, there's an unusual thing these days, 2 of us online at the same time !

Nice of you to say so.   No not cranked.  TV sound level.  I have discovered a nice trick that makes the amp sound really pushed at low volumes....use an EQ pedal in front of it and dip the mids and boost the top and bottom..gives it that "nearly exploded" vibe !
