Dangle the 57

I’ve been recording scratch tracks by dangling an SM-57 over the top of the amp. I know with a little tweaking I can do better, but dang, this sounds pretty good.

Of course, my guitar rig sounds good. Really good. So capturing it isn’t that hard. The best recordings start at the source.

    Just make sure all the stuff on top of the Mesa Boogie doesn’t fall on the floor! :)

    Nice…

    It’s actually pretty stable - never fallen off, even on stage. I am in the market for a 6-space, though, and looking for one that will sit a little better.
