20th Silo: Phenomenal Clean Sound

[GHWelles]

Played a gig on Saturday night.

I used the 20th Silo with a compressor and no distortion for a clean sound. Beautiful sound. The compensated nut really makes the guitar play in tune in any position up and down the neck, especially important when playing clean. Really and noticeably works.

I used the Petrucci for the rockers. Love that floating trem and the rock sound.

Did you use the magic middle position?

 

[GHWelles]

great combo! Where did you play?

I played at Sun City at their concert venue. Nice stage and sound. (I felt a little guilty becasue of that Little Stephen song "I ain't gonna play Sun City.")

It was a Blues skit with live music for the local legal community. Probably 200 people attending.

Did you use the magic middle position?

Yes, that middle position on the Petrucci is a great blues sound. I used all the Petrucci positons, a lot of switching back and forth, they all sound good and distinct.

By the way what amp did/do you use?

I used my Marshall Studio 15 into an Avatar 2X12 cab with one Vintage 30 and One G-12H30.
I miked the Vintage 30 with a Shure SM57 into the soundboard.

I used a Keeley Modded ts-808 and Analog Man modded ts-9 for the rock songs.

I used an old late 70's MXR Dynacomp for the clean songs.

Boss DD-3 on everything.

Sounded pretty good.
