Re: Post Clips of YOUR Hendrix Tone
If am not a really good player, am not trying to play and sound exactly like hendrix, can i still post? I think, despite not being really good i can nail some interesting hendrix-like tone.
Am ready to share info on my setup anytime and ready to take advice on improving my playing abilities. Especially with the wah pedal voodoo child into, seems like i have no clue wtf i am doing with the pedal and am just trying to make it sounds good.
I rarly record myself because i think am not a good player, but everyonce i do i like the way it sound, despite my poor playing

Re: Post Clips of YOUR Hendrix Tone
Here is a short clip that I have posted before of an instrumental version of "Killing Floor"...I did this in 1993-the audio comes from a VHS of a small club that I played...

Re: Post Clips of YOUR Hendrix Tone
area51 wah -> microvibe->red dot sunface (I think, the red dot works berst in most of the bright rooms I end up in so that's what I've been grabbing lately) -> plexi project amp (shared cathode, bright tone stack, .1 output caps, post PI master, low-ish filtering, scumback h55)

Re: Post Clips of YOUR Hendrix Tone
wow, i'm quite impressed with this superbass clip !
makes me want to mod my metro SL69 with a switch for Lead/bass spec. here's already a switch for shared/split cathode.
is this one pure stock values ? which tubes ?
except the univibe, anything else than the reverb added i guess ?

Re: Post Clips of YOUR Hendrix Tone
Not sure but maybe just the lead tone stack. I had few mods on it over time, lead tone stack, low filtering, negative feedback resistor etc. never tried split cathode. I liked stock values in that amp the best in the end though, for that fat clean tone. Svetlana Winged C EL34 and Mullard 12AX7 tubes.Xplorer wrote:wow, i'm quite impressed with this superbass clip !

Pedals I used late '60s Vox Wah, DOD Overdrive Preamp FX50 (kinda like the DOD 250), Danelectro Chicken Salad (modded), Electro Harmonix POG and Alesis Nanoverb.
In the clip there's many things coloring the amp's basic tone; Lar/Mar PPIMV set low, the DOD FX50, the Nanoverb and last but not least the camera recorder itself.
Thanks for watching!

What sort of guitar are you using there? Looks like a late 60s model like mine from what I can see of it in the clip...

Re: Post Clips of YOUR Hendrix Tone
i think i'd love an harmonix pog, i didn't know it : is that what produces these nice bassy sounds in the end of the clip ?
love it ! i'm sure hendrix would have loved it also. it fits very well this BOG song and the wah. pog for bog lol
but i guess ... a ps5 boss pitch shifter could do the same right ? along with a univibe and a wah ...perhaps a monstruous cool germanium fuzz, hendrix feedbacks and sustain, monstruous tone ! lol
do you have some hi res pictures of the inside of your amp ? i'd be curious to see it ; )

Guitar is an early 80's Tokai Silver Star (4-bolt neck) which is basically a reissue of a late 60's strat.

Re: Post Clips of YOUR Hendrix Tone
Yes POG is fun! I had the mini POG version to be exact. I have now a BOSS OC-3 which is ok. There's a POG2 out now that must be cool. We didn't have a bass player in our band so at gigs we used an octave pedal with these Super Bass amps hehe.Xplorer wrote:i think i'd love an harmonix pog, i didn't know it : is that what produces these nice bassy sounds in the end of the clip ?

I have some inside pics on the other PC but it's giving me the black screen of death at the moment so have to fix that first somehow.

Anyway keep those clips coming! Really nice tones in this thread!
