Topic: Steel "snippets"! |

Below are two .wav files...a couple of snippets of my steel work. The first is an intro (recorded live in a club almost 10 years ago) for the old Freddie Hart song "She'll Throw Stones At You". It was done on my ol' 73 MSA, through a '66 B/F Twin Reverb amp )with a 15" SRO speaker). The second is a turnaround (recorded using the same guitar), in a studio (all digital) about 2 years ago, going directly into the board, with EQ almost flat.
I'm kinda new at this "uploading of files" thing, so the quality (like my playing  ) may not be the best, but it'll give you an idea of what I sound like. Hopefully, I'll have some stuff recorded on my new Millennium in the near future. Enjoy!

Sounds great! Please post longer segments next time. It's interesting to hear "The Plywood Wonder" that you've used as an example from time to time in the tone discussions; thru both tubes and solid state.
Or, when you do some snippets with the Millennium, you might also include a couple little examples of the same passage with the old MSA, just for comparative interest.
Is the tone "in the hands" or not? Maybe now we'll find out for sure.  |

Never wooda guessed that was an MSA.
Sounded darn good! I guess that old Twin
Reverb made the difference. The
second sample was real nice also.
Best thing is to use mp3 files instead
of .wav files. They'll load alot faster
so you can make the clips longer.
Keep 'em comin'!!! |

Bill - Thanks...I never said I couldn't play, I just said I wasn't "great". 
Mike - Thanks also for the kind words.
Jeff - I could have done longer clips, but I wanted to keep the download times reasonable...thanks, as well for the "flowers".
Lem - I still 'a tryin!
Jay - Thanks, I gotta find out what program to buy to do the "MP3" thing.
Pete - Thanks to you too! The intonation on the first clip is "acceptable" to me, but not perfect. I think I about "nailed it" on that second one, though. (Lucky, I guess! ) |

You don't have to buy anything to make
an mp3 file. Just do it though your
Real Player or download MusicMatch.
All that stuff is free! |

Hey guys: A little while back, Donny told me in an e-mail that he wasn't what he used to be. Well, Donny, I listened to both clips..and they both sounded fine to me; makes me want to hear more!

Hi Donny....just heard your clips.....they sounded great..particularly the second one...`Have I told you Lately`......that to me was the sound I expect from a psg....now my problem is......at 63 yrs. do I have enough time left to get to sound like that....
Good work.....looking fwd to hearing that Millenium....would love to learn more about them........currently tossing up between a Carter and MSA Millenium....
thanks for a good listen

That´s great Donny. Really fine tone and taste. It shows your expertise. I´ll never say an MSA sounds bad. But then it looks like we both prefer the same brand of amps

While I was playing your music my wife called out from the next room to play the whole songs.....she hardly ever does that.
Maybe I can score some points if I can get you to play the entire songs...C'mon, maybe I can get lucky!
Sounds really good, thanx for sharing them with us. |
