You're getting this in advance of the video, which should be published some time in the next couple days. I might have gone a bit overboard with the demo this time. What do you think?
Drive around with me trash picking while talking current events and personal philosophy.
This is a clip that I normally just discard at the end of a project. It's an extended and unedited jam session from which I took all the guitar clips for the recent D'Angelico Double Cut demo. Originally recorded in 4k, the full clip is 16gb large, which explains why I don't usually save these clips once a project is complete. Saving all the clips from these video would mean I'd eat up hard drive space in no time, so I always just delete them. This time, for giggles, I figured I'd reduce this down from 4k to 1080 and upload it here to preserve it. It's just raw camera mic footage, but it's fun to see how much stuff gets discarded when I edit this stuff down. It might also be fun for some of you to see how I usually go about recording demos. As you can see, I just start jamming and see what comes out. Some of it gets used and most of it hits the cutting room floor. This was the first time in about 6 weeks that I had picked up a guitar after my back injury, so it felt really good to ...
A few years back I saw a 412 cabinet at my local Music Go Round. It was built by a company I didn't recognize, but I did a little research and found out the cabinet was from the early 70s and, if the speakers were original, would contain 4x Celestion Green Backs. I borrowed a screw driver from the guy at the counter and opened the cab. Sure enough, there were 4x early 70s Celestion Green Backs. I traded them to a guy in Asia for a half ounce Canadian Gold Maple Leaf. I paid $100 for the cabinet. Today, gold hit a near all time high close to $3000/ounce. I sold that half ounce bullion round for $1500. THAT is how you score at the music store, my friends.
