Nice Job Bassturd! I'm going to put mine up later tonight. I was waiting to make sure someone else was going to enter because I didn't want to be the only one.

Wouldn't be any fun that way, you know.

[bassturd]

can't wait to hear it man ;D GIVE IT HELL!!!!!!

[Maddog15]

Alright, here's mine! I played all the guitar parts, the bass parts, and I programmed the drums. I also did vocals, but removed them from this track since Bassturd and I are the only guys that put anything up. So here's the link.

I changed a few parts as well as added in a few guitar solos towards the end, where the screaming parts usually are. I could have done a lot better on the solos, but I ran out of time. They're both one take deals that I improvised while recording about a half hour ago. And since the deadline was tonight, that's what I had to stick with.

Thanks to MrSandMan for putting on this contest, I thought it was a really cool idea and I had a lot of fun doing it! Too bad more people didn't join in, I was hoping there would be more in the future.

Maddog, What gear did you use? I like the improvised leads, they fit in really nice. Love the quality and tone.

Bassturd, you have amazing tone for the epi valve jr. Very impressive.

Nicely done, both of you!

[Maddog15]

Thanks man, glad you liked it! Here's the gear I used:

Amp-Krank w/ Randall Cab. Cab mic'd with SM-57

Guitars-Washburn Idol w/ EMG's for all guitar parts except the trem part at the end. For that I used a Washburn X81 Face Eraser w/ EMG's as well.

Effects-Boss SD-1 just to tighten everything up(no extra gain), Vox wah for the solo, and I also used a phaser at one part.

Everything was recorded in Audacity.

Just so you all know. Bassturd... little Jon Jon, ripped off a forum member over at Harmony Central. Wanted to let you all know in case you're thinking of dealing with him. :wavey:
