New Equipment at The Sound!
by admin on Jan.28, 2011, under Uncategorized
We’re excited to announce some new equipment at the studio:
Wechter Nashville Guitar
- This guitar’s unique tuning allows the creation of wide stereo and spatial ambience. A great addition to nearly any acoustic guitar track.
T.C. Electronics Nova Delay and Nova Modulator
- The delay and modulation effects of T.C.’s awesome G system. These incredibly lush yet transparent effects are perfect for recording.
GDS ’65 Marshall 18 Watt Guitar Amplifier Clone
- Mark hand-built this clone of the famous ’65 Marshall 18 watt guitar amp. Watched with a G12H Celestion vintage 30 watt speaker, this combo delivers real Marshall crunch at an ideal recording volume.
Look forward to an updated and expanded gear list!
