EQUIPMENT
My wife just got me a Les Paul Cherry Sunburst, like the one I had in the 70's.
I have an old base, a Westone (made similiar to a Fender Strat), a Memphis (like a Gibson Les Paul copy).
I have a Boss BR-864 (small 8 track, 64 virtual tracks), and I have used it to mix a few tunes with all instruments....takes me a long time to do one song.
MUSIC
-
Blue on Black
Blue on Black Album: Kenny Wayne Shepherd
I did this with my BR-864. I almost never use tremelo, but it sounds cool here. This is a soundtrack I have made, so without the vocals the verses seem long and drawn out (boring), but listen for the tremelo. I also experimented with a fixed wah sound on the leads.

Tears in Heaven
Tears in Heaven Album: Eric Clapton
Did this with a very cheap acoustic guitar. This is the first and only time I played with string arrangements....I used a keyboard to simulate violins and cello. Even used a tuning fork to simulate a triangle. Check it out with the headphones.
