Weird Al "Tacky" review
I've been a Weird Al listener for a long time, and something a lot of people don't take into consideration is just how damned good of a musician he is.
Are the neon color guitars coming back in style?
There was a time in the 80s when neon-colored guitars sold fairly well. Has that time come again?
Most of the famous rock songs you know have isolated guitars that sound like crap
An individual most would consider a rock god of sorts is Randy Rhoads. Was Randy a good player? Yes. But his studio tone was total crap.
If you look up what Over The Mountain sounds like with just the guitars heard, it sounds awful. The guitars are nothing but a trebly, clacky, nasty mess.
Why do the guitars sound bad on their own? It's not for lack of guitar playing ability, but rather because they were purposely recorded that way.
What's the true test of whether a recording is good or not?
Hint: It's not studio monitors.
How to get a good recorded sound from a bass guitar the really fast way
I'm going to note up front that this is written from a guitar player's point of view, but it should serve well for bass players also.
