MV FTW! Jazz pretender meets shred pretender

Post by xtian »

Today I am here to praise the PPIMV master volume on my Marshall 1987 build.

I am enrolled in the Berklee college of music's Jazz Improv class. This week's assignment was to noodle around in various scales to show proficiency. However, because I am a jazz pretender (and a shred pretender, for that matter), I mess with these exercises in my DAW, ending up with more elaborate recordings than other students are likely producing.

The track attached demonstrates the A Lydian b7 scale (#4, b7). I'm playing my '61 SG reissue into my Monkeymatic Fiddy v3. Bright channel dimed, normal channel at noon, MV set very, very low so as not to bother nice people at home. Shure SM57 at edge of Eminence Man of War (can't imagine the speaker makes much of a difference at this volume). No effects, no EQ, just a little compression across the master to bring the mix up.

Nice!

Kind of had a Satriani flavor to it. :D

Congratulations! Nice sounding amp, and dynamic, it seems to be very touch sensitive.
Bravo for the playing :D
