Custom guitar tracks recorded with real tube amps, cabs and mics for $160

I love arranging and recording guitar parts in any style: classic rock, blues, indie, ambient, electronica, metal, prog and more. Send me detailed instructions or sheet music, or give me a rough direction and let me run with it. Before I start, we'll talk through the song and the guitar concepts so the result fits your project.

The gear

• Guitars: Gibson, PRS, Fender, Suhr, Taylor and more
• Amps: Friedman BE-100 Deluxe, Twin Sister, Small Box 50 and IR-X, Laboga DS50, Fender Tremolux, Marshall Silver Jubilee 2555X, 1975 JMP 50, 1984 JCM800, Mesa Boogie Mark V, Brunetti Mercury 100 and more
• Pedals: boutique and rare pedals for the finishing touches

I have plugins and IRs too, but I record through real amps, cabs and mics whenever I can.

Recording chain

• Amp and cab selector (8 amps, 6 cabs) so I can find the right combination fast
• Fryette PS2 feeding a direct signal to an RME Fireface 800
• Cubase Pro 12 on an HP Z640

Cab miking
Two close mics, Royer R-121 and Shure SM57, through AMS Neve 1073LB, Chandler Limited TG2 or clean RME preamps. Other mics available: Telefunken, Sennheiser MD421-5 and MD441, Audix i5, Sennheiser e609, Superlux R102 MkII, Shure Beta 57A.

Acoustic guitars
Taylor 710CE recorded with a Rode NTK tube condenser and an LR Baggs M1 soundhole pickup. Alvarez Yairi jumbo for 12-string parts.

What you get

• 2 tracks per electric guitar part (one per mic)
• A DI track for reamping if you want to change the tone later
• 24-bit/48kHz WAV files, dry and wet, as separate tracks so you or your mixer have full control

Send me your song and let's build the guitar parts.
