Great job man, and nice tone! What amp model was this based on in the Axe FX if I might ask?

 

[threeminutesboy]

very nice rendering!

 

[ozzyrules]

Beautiful. Exactly what gear & settings are you playing?

 

[PeteDuBaldo]

Very cool, thanks for sharing! I love me some Whitesnake

Guys, thank you for your kind words.

About the gear:

MM Luke True Gold, got it last Thursday, neck pickup.
AxeFx Ultra. Custom patch I made with the CAE+ Crunch channel emulation. Not too much gain, a little bit of pitch-shift and delay.
Reaper as DAW, got the backing track here: Whitesnake - Is This Love (Live) Free Guitar Backing Track
Downloaded the bt and made a track in Reaper, then I Recorded the myself direct in a stereo track. One take ( LOL , lots of mistakes).
The dry sound from the amp is on the left, the effects are on the right. I like to record that way, lets the guitar breath and take her place into the mix.

What is interesting is that I used the same patch I use to play Van Halen with an Axis, so, most of the tone comes from the neck pickup of the True Gold, I'm in love with this guitar.
