Members Greg Bogoshian Posted June 26, 2004 Members Posted June 26, 2004 A couple of clams, but not too bad. For some reason though, when I save the wav file to mp3, it seems to overload causing a lot of clipping that is not in the raw wav file. I don't get it... Anyway, here's the proto with Beef&Boggs... I tried to go for a more Metheney-esque tone. The tone pot was rolled back a bit. http://www.angelfire.com/ny5/boggs.com/Cyberjam/BeefandBoggs1.mp3
Members UGB Posted June 26, 2004 Members Posted June 26, 2004 smooth and mellow w/a very full body.hey, that could be a good wine too!
Members LittleBrother Posted June 26, 2004 Members Posted June 26, 2004 Sounds sweet and mellow. I can hear the humbucks. Kinda sounds Gibson'ish but without some of the carved top edge. May just be the rolled back treble. I am guessing by a few of the notes you hit that the strings are lights like 10s and not 11s or 12s. This one seems to sound better than the ones you posted before. I am guessing was the proto. Congrats on your new baby!
Members LesStrater Posted June 26, 2004 Members Posted June 26, 2004 Sounds good! I agree with LB, it had that "Les Paul using the neck position humbucker" sound. Crank up the distortion and you can change your name to "Slash"...LOL
Members Greg Bogoshian Posted June 26, 2004 Author Members Posted June 26, 2004 I combined the full bridge humbucker with the single neck coil of the neck humbucker. I also used a different program to record and convert the wav file to mp3 which is probably why it sounds better than the previous one... Hard to believe the body uses less than $10 worth of wood! I also think the maple neck makes a big difference. I have felt that the neck material has the biggest influence on tone and sustain because of the moment arm length. Choose your neck material wisely, grasshoppers! Boggs
Members Pedro Posted June 26, 2004 Members Posted June 26, 2004 looks good and sound really good. I liked the nice mellow tone that you got on the clip.
Members FingerBone Bill Posted June 28, 2004 Members Posted June 28, 2004 Now that is a nice sounding guitar Boggs. How will you feel if the prototype ends up sounding better than the final guitar?
Members 54merk Posted June 28, 2004 Members Posted June 28, 2004 Very nice sounding axe. Sure does have that fat Gibson neck pickup sound with the tone pot rolled back. I would imagine that the combination of single and double coil pickups make it quite versatile. Keep 'em coming.
Members Myrica Posted June 28, 2004 Members Posted June 28, 2004 Oooo that sounds nice, boggs:cool: !

Thanks, guys! I can't say that the prototype will sound better or worse. Just different. I think they will both complement each other. The cool thing is, the electronics and layouts as well as chambered body designs are very similar so the main differences will be the body and neck woods. This should answer a lot of questions for a lot of folks. Boggs
Members Etienne Rambert Posted June 30, 2004 Members Posted June 30, 2004 Writing about the rhythm guitar only. The high end sounds very smooth, yet clear. I don't hear any low or mid-range on your mp3. So I can't say what it sounds like in those ranges.
Members Greg Bogoshian Posted June 30, 2004 Author Members Posted June 30, 2004 It's very "woody" and rich... Trust me on that one!
Members Gabriel_GR Posted March 20, 2007 Members Posted March 20, 2007 So this is actually an acoustic with electric guitar Pickups?
