This sounds great. I'm not really familiar Johnny Thunders, aside from the guitars sounding good, the vocal sounds good too, there's one long held note without a wobble in it at all.
Thanks, those long notes sound just a little off pitch to me though. I think the backing vocals underneath aren't quite there and it leaves it feeling weird. I don't care, but when I hear it there's a tension on those parts and it's not really good.

Sounds OK to me and I'm a pretty decent vocalist having done it for 40 years. You never want to be absolutely spot on. It's the tension and very slight dissonance and seperates the good form the RocknRolll. You have to be Ella Fitzgerald or Nat King Cole to sing perfectly and sound good.. Leave it as it is, its perfect..;)

I totally agree. Maybe it's just how I hear my own voice in my own head. I'm not going to change it. It does sound off to me though and not in a very good way. But I don't care. I did that whole thing in a few hours. I've been playing this song since I was 15 years old. I might do another one today with a different amp.

I don't give a fuck about that. Sounds like rock n roll to me.

Rock n Roll should not be perfect. If it was all we would have to listen to would be Steely Dan and nobody wants that... :cool:

Another one would be more than welcome and way above my expectation... :punk:

Hang on, Mutt - I thought Gerg's pickup was a regular P90 build with tweaks; isn't the B90 our 'bucker-shaped P90?

It's a Mutt90. Technically, we not allowed to use the term P90.. I will be calling all P90 styles B90 from here on... Easier.

Righto, makes sense. I imagined the 'B' stood for Bucker90. :biggrin:

What about M90 or..... G90? :biggrin:


I call mine "M90". When I'm labeling my tracks, I'll type in something like "M90 2204 GB 57". That way I can go back later and see that track was done with the Mutt90 through the 2204 into Greenbacks mic'd with a 57.

Yes, I thought the same - M90 or G90.

Ok as I'm sort of firming up on all this and trying to get a consistent brand/range.. I shall stick with

B90 for bucker footprint,
M90 for standard 90's,
G90 for the newly awarded gerg signature in the pedigree range..

Originally I labeled it B90 for Bubba90

Now I need to classify the Humbuckers....

Thanks Mutt.

By the way, I got another G90 Thunders cover probably coming today. I tried to make it another one-day deal, but I couldn't finish it. Life shit got in the way. I should get it done today.
