Another Carlton/Brierley Broadcaster jam, this time with a Cm backing track courtesy of Jamtrackcentral.com.
Ray Carlton, Mick Brierley and I go back quite a long way. Longtime admirers of each others work, we decided to collaborate on a Broadcaster-based guitar with some modern touches. This guitar is it. Basically a Broadcaster (thanks, Mick!) with bigger, frets, 500k pots, and a really light chunk of Louisiana swamp ash cut out by Ray Carlton. I love it and I'll be happy to relic it myself.
For this vid, I ran Fractal's latest FW 7.02 and dialled up a JTM45 with their new Shimmer Drive. The delay is a Memory Man model. All mastering with Waves L3-16.
