This is an excellent song. Definitely got Shadows - Ventures vibe. Cool tune . Some neat effects at the end as well. Well done

Hi Telewanger, glad you enjoyed it. The Strat has Kinman FV pups in.

Hi Ian

Great sounding song indeed. I am however curious to what pedals/patches you use to get that drippy Surf/Ventures sound and as I am typing I sense a flavour of Hank Marvin too!

The harmonies you play sound spectacular

Regards

Hi Scott, many thanks for your kind comments. Much appreciated. I dont have much 'gear' but those I have are inexpensive and great fun.

Hi Wobbly
So glad you enjoyed it. I tried for 'Country' but I guess you can take the man out of the 60's but not the 60's out of the man. Hank Marvin and his contemporaries were/are my influences.
Pedals - A Boss CS-3 for some light compression
The middle verse and chorus uses a Behringer US600 Harmonist pedal set as minus one octave but the wet/dry set 50/50 so you hear both the mid register input guitar and the processed low register signal. Bit like reversed 12 string lol.
The echo is from a 25+ year old Alesis Q2 Quadraverb.
The Bridge to outro is a harmony track I worked out and recorded in after the main Lead was done.
Hope that helps
Ian

sixchannel,

Your instrumental has definitely captured the spirit of your intent. Can feel myself cruising down the open road with this one . . . and could hear this easily on a movie or short soundtrack, closing credits as the hero rides off. Well done!

All my best,

Deej

Hi Deej.
Thanks for your kind feedback. I think here in the UK we're done with top-down cruisin' for this year.

sixchannel, I also get a big time Ventures feel in this! A cool track that is highly enjoyable to listen to! Great job putting all this together. I liked the little bit different twist with this melody in the latter half of the song with the guitar! Thanks, Torrey

Hi Torrey
Many thanks.
It was fun to try and change the main tune sound with the pedal and the harmony was 'interesting' to put together yoo.

Hi Ian,

The accolades that have come your way are really well deserved. This is a fantastic listen.

I agree with Trev, you sure made the strat sing!

I totally enjoyed the listen.

Hi Noel
Thank you very much.
I was trying for Country but I guess I'm a Shadows/Ventures kind of guy. Lol.
Cheers

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."

Our Customer Service hours this weekend are:
