about

I hadn't played a guitar in months, so I thought I'd see what kind of tones I could squeeze out of my 2000 Gary Moore signature Les Paul (dang, that sucker is turning 24 this year!). Anyhow, the title is a nod to the trick of rolling back the tone control for the neck pickup and then feeding it into an amp with a good bit of overdrive. It creates rich and creamy tones when you get up into the higher notes. I was using a Brit '80s (aka, Marshall) on my Fender Mustang modeling amp. The preset was called, "Tooth and Nail." Rickenbacker bass was recorded direct into a Zoom B3 bass interface and a BeatBuddy supplied the drums.
