I used to absolutely HATE this 80s tone

Показать описание
I can’t seem to get enough of 80s Strat tones these days. From cleaner, percussive out of phase sounds (like what you’ll hear in this video) to the bigger chorus’d out compressed sounds (upcoming video), they just fit in a mix SO well. And I used to absolutely loathe these sounds. Now, I use them to great effect in my day to day job of playing guitar on songs. So, here’s what I have today: Subscriber Dan wrote a bunch of songs back in the 80s and is now revisiting them by having others such as myself add value by recording new parts and/or re-recording his parts. This song modulates back and forth between Gm and G. The song sounds country/western/folk with hints of pop and a Latin feel (minor key with a dominant 5 chord) and 1980s sensibilities throughout. I decided a cool cleanish Strat with some reverb and delay reminiscent of Wicked Game (YES that is an 80s Strat tone! It was recorded in '89, mind you) would fit well. That and a tremolo'd baritone give this track the imagery of two band guys playing their own parts. Who knew those things could live together? PS: I’m hearing the Strat track more “wet” than presented; as with most tracks I play, I try not to commit the mix engineer to high reverb and delay levels that may interfere with his or her job. Enjoy!
