Hello,

I thought I would post up this new track:

https://soundcloud.com/kirk-farmer/stormy-monday-jam

I am playing my freshly refurbished red Axis hardtail. Literally, the guy who did the work on it handed it to me when I was already on stage and I let rip! I was very pleased to have it back!

He did a fret dress, put in a new bone nut, put the factory correct block saddles back on it and replaced the volume pot.

My solo starts at 3.59.

Enjoy!
 
Thank you! I was really proud of this one.

I was playing a... wait for it........ Roland Cube 80GX! Mic'd with a Superlux Mic. No pedals or external effects!
 
You sounded great, Tim. It must have been nice to have the old Axis back in such fine shape. :cool:

That Cube seems to be a pretty good amp.
 
We actually just got done listening to it as "background" music to my 5 year old's homework session. My wife, and myself enjoyed it. Not bebop enough for my little one though, lol. Very tasty!

Thank you! I will see what I can do about some added bebop for next time!

Wow, I've got the really small cube for practice. I don't think I can make it sound like that. Maybe I should pull out the hard tail EVH.........

I used the 'Metal Stack' sound which is supposed to sound like a 5150. A bit of spring reverb and that's it. Gain was at about 50%. The one I have does at least have a 12" speaker and is 80 watts.
