New song from 2021. This song was an experiment blending two amplifiers. I picked up a new pedal with a ground lift and it kill the 60 cycle hum I got plugging in two amps at the same time. The pedal was a Radial Twin City hence the name of the song.

Hi Scott,

I enjoyed this song - the melody and guitar phrasing are excellent and nice backing instrumentation.

Mix: I think the lead guitar is the right volume but could possibly do with a bit more reverb to "sit it down" in the mix.

Best Regards
Nigel

Nice song.
Guitars sound good!

That image of the Gibby 335 brings back memories.
As a youngster, I saved my $ to buy my first "good guitar" a 1963 cherry red 335.
Same stupid teenager, sold it to buy a car.
Silly me.

Anyways, nice production.

Scott...very clean and cool...this piece would make a great soundtrack for a laid back scene in a movie set in the south-west...spacious and mysterious...really enjoyed.

The slide parts really describe the space with the double amp sitting nicely in the centre.
Another subtle and pretty piece.

Great tone and melody as per usual, and nice hearing the slide in there.

I always enjoy listening to your instrumentals, Scott, nicely done!

Scott,

Your guitar tone on this seems to really "hit the sweet spot" to define the Scott Collingwood sound! Cool.

Nice backing that allows your guitar to shine.

Very much enjoyed the listen. One of your best.

Scott,
very pleasant tune. Cool melody line and tone. Easy listen! I do think that lead guitar is a bit too upfront, but that might be just me. Thank you for sharing.

Misha.

Nice. You found such rich tones on your guitar. The steady beat from the band is right on time too. Great mix. Top notch playing for sure.

Thanks Moto. I got the 335 on a trade for a PRS. Did not bond with the PRS. This one plays great and has a nice warm tone. Glad you liked the song

Two days ago I was talking with someone about your playing, Scott, and 3 words came to mind. Tone, timing and taste. This tune is such a great example of that. Man, you really know how to inspire mood in your listeners, and I'm happy to be one. Thanks for the inspiration.


Enjoy whatever happens!
