    Kicking the Weekend off with something heavy

    This is a cross between, Pantera, Metallica, Rob Zombie and Dokken. At least to me. :) Had a lot of different bands playing on the stereo this week. Hope you guys like the insanity. Let me know.

    Been A while... AxeFX/Kemper Content

    Hey all, been a while since I posted anything. Hope everyone is well and safe. Here is a more melodic tune than the usual weedly weedly stuff, hope you guys enjoy the AxeFX and Kemper playing nicely together.

    Kicking off 2021 with some Semi Hollow Metal

    This one is a bit all over the place and a hell of a finger twister. Hope you guys enjoy! All rhythms were recorded with my Firefly FF338 (yeah a semi hollow is this dang heavy) and leads were dropped in with my Strat.

    Been a while, happy 2021!!! New tune, FXII/Kemper content

    Wow, Seems like forever since I last posted here and now the FX II is "legacy". Wonderful lol... This is the final tune I recorded for 2020. #101 for the year. Definitely a roller coaster and the tune shows it. I used the AxeFX II XL+ for the main 2 rhythm guitar tracks, the Kemper plays the...

    Mix Feedback - OCD Help

    Hey guys, Need some help with something that is driving me nuts. Basically I've recreated my overall mix/mastering profile over the last few months through several gear acquisitions. I've noticed that my old mixes sound more a live and they used a lot less gear to get right. Without going...

    AXEFX IIXL+ and Kemper quad tracked

    Some new stuff...

    Hey all, Been a while. Went through a major PC crash and had to get everything back up to snuff on a new MAC mini. Change of OS, change of plugins, everything was new. So anywho - here is a little jam I put together. Hope you guys like it:

    New Tune with my new 7 string and bass patch

    Hey all, Been a few weeks/months since I last posted. Lots going on. Here is a quick little tune I put together this evening after spending some time on a new bass patch. Let me know what you guys think of this one, still a work in progress. I used my new Kiesel Aries 7 String and Yamaha...

    Another Tune with my Firefly FF338

    Put this one together a few weeks ago and figured I'd share. I gotta say for $140 this guitar is unreal. Hope you guys like this one... (And no, I'm not a slide player lol)
  10. Narsh

    Hey All, been a while...

    This is one hell of a wild ride if I do say so myself. This really started out during today's heavy bag workout. I was listening to Carcass - Heartwork and started getting little ideas here and there. So, this is the outcome of those thoughts and little ideas throughout the day. I hope you...

    New tunes with a really inexpensive guitar

    Hey guys, been a while since I posted much. Been busy moving cross country(back to SFL). I recently caught wind of a very inexpensive line of guitars on Amazon.com. Not sure if you guys heard of Firefly guitars. I figured I'd check them out since they were going for $149 and worst case I could...

    Josh Smith tone

    has anyone come across Josh's tone and been able to reproduce it on the axefx? Been trying but i cant quite nail it. Nowhere close actually.

    Not Left To Chance - new tune

    A new little tune I came up with tonight... Hope you guys like this one:

    8 String Showcase

    I recorded this tune to post on reverb in hopes of helping the sale of the LTD 8 string... Figured I'd share it with you guys since it had a few different styles in there.. Definitely a fun listen, hadn't played that thing in ages...
  15. Narsh

    Two new Tunes for the evening...

    Totally different tunes but I hadn't played my KM7 in a while so I threw a quick metal blast together. The other is a bit more heartfelt. ;) Hope you guys like them:

    New Fun Tune - Paper Mountains

    This is a whole bunch of fun, something for everyone's tastes... I even managed to drop some dubstep in there.

    Sunday Afternoon Jam before the DustStorm

    Pretty darn relaxing for the most part... The rest is well... A good Jam IMHO. Hope you guys like it

    A laid back Rock tune

    Hey guys, Been a bit since I posted a tune. This one is a bit laid back and has an uncomfortable vibe to it. At least to me while I played through it. Hope you enjoy.

    Ambient Tune..Fender Strat Content

    Came across a Fender Twin patch today and brought down the Fender MIM Strat for a really cool and ambient little jam.. Its totally laid back and very Buckethead-ish. ;) Enjoy!
  20. Narsh

    A Feel Good Tune

    Here is a "feel good" tune. Its a mix of Eric Johnson, Foo Fighters and some really dirty bass tones for a bridge section. Just a cool song you can definitely play on a nice drive. Hope you guys enjoy, let me know what you think.
  21. Narsh

    Been a Few weeks... New Tune

    Lots been going on as of late so the stress really killed any creative juices.. This is the first tune I put together in a while so I hope you guys enjoy it. Nothing too crazy at all - just a cool little progression to jam to. ;) I used my JS100 and Newly setup Raiden IV bass.
  22. Narsh

    Slow and bluesy jam

    I don't claim to know how to play blues so I will preface the tune with that... Totally amateurish. Still, it came out pretty raw which is what I was going for. Hope you like it.
  23. Narsh

    A little Proggy Jam - Ibanez RoadCore content

    I recorded this with my Ibanez RC365. There is something about this guitar that I love and hate. It sounds good, is tough to play but keeps me picking it up. Here is a quick little jam to let off some steam before bed. Enjoy!
  24. Narsh

    Getting back to basics - Speed Metal Friday - Vader Content

    Yeah I went a little nuts with this one - but that is ok. My fingers needed to fly a bit on the rhythm side of the house. Its a haunting yet really intricate tune with lots of changes and a heck of a lot of notes. Hope you guys enjoy this one!
  25. Narsh

    New AxeFX Patch, new tune...

    Hope you guys like this one. Its pretty up beat and uses the free STLTones pack SKYDreams. The rhythm patch is a combination of a Mesa IIC++ model and a Vox AC15 model. Pretty cool combo. I used my LTD EC401VF and Schecter Raiden IV bass.
  26. Narsh

    STLTones - Erik Ron Bundle for AxeFX

    STL Tones had a 4th of July sale this week and I figured I'd try one of their packs to see how they sound and how what I've created compares. The pack itself wasn't terrible, around $40 for 37 patches and cab IRs. I recorded, mixed and produced the track using my usual setup and I honestly...

    Vintage Blues/Rock - maybe??

    So I watched the documentary "IT MIGHT GET LOUD" and I was really intrigued with Jack White, Jimmy Page and The Edge's tones. Its a honky, thick tone with loads of reverb. I did what I could to reproduce the sound using the axefx. I must say, I'm really happy with the tone and hope you guys...

    The Underminer - new tune

    This was a total accident. I received my Bass from setup yesterday and got the news it had a twisted neck. Boo... Good news is my tech did such a great job that you can't really notice it. No buzzing or anything. This was supposed to be me just testing the bass out, but it became a pretty...

    First Time inspired by Royal Blood

    So I am constantly looking for new inspiration and came across the band Royal Blood which got me cooking up some new patches on the axefx to mess with. I have to say, I listened to a few of Royal Blood's tunes and they are one of my new favorite bands next to Greta Van Fleet. Totally original...

    A fun tune before the week starts.

    This was a total hoot!

    Two new tunes for the Father's Day weekend

    Two very different tunes but man they rock! I mean, these are going straight to my workout playlist. Great stuff if you ask me. (yeah I'm patting myself on the back). The first tune was just a quickly inspired jam with the PRS Tremonti. Hadn't played that baby in a little bit so it was great to...
  32. Narsh

    Light Blues

    Called it Rocking Chair blues because that is exactly where this came to me... Sitting on the rocking chair. I recorded this one and intentially wanted it to sound "under-Processed" and Raw. This is one of those tunes that just comes out and lets you peak into the moment you know... Hope...

    Saturday's Hodge Podge mix of Nirvana, Vai and Prog Rock

    This one is a total hodge podge of lots of different influences. Been listening to a lot of grunge lately and trying to meld some of that with Prog and some of the usual weedly weedly solo stuff. This tune was flat out fun to come up with and play. The solo has a lot of Vai influence in it. I...

    NGD - Schecter Solo Vintage - Pics and Tune inside

    I went to GC to check out the Semi Hollow's I had been looking at when this beauty totally caught me by surprise. Its a Schecter Solo Vintage with a Bigsby! It plays so well, and sounds totally different than my other guitars. Needless to say, I'm very happy with the purchase. She's got a...

    Thursday Prog Rock

    I will preface this by saying I am not really a light rock, classic rock, or any type of 70's rock guitarist. I've always been a metal head and was totally against anything other than shred or speed metal back in my youth. My ignorance led me down different musical paths until my mind and...

    "Flushed Away" - Thrash for your Weekend

    Decided to go with something a bit more old school and in your face. Watch out for some Shawn Lane licks towards the end. (not that I can pull that off, but I love his style)

  40. Narsh

    Acoustic Jam

    Tried something totally different. I went acoustice but I recorded nothing but the one guitar. I used it for the percussion as well as all the different layers. It is pretty darn cool if you ask me - definitely something worth exploring more. Hope you enjoy it..
  41. Narsh

    A little Punk Rock with a twist

    Started noodling a bit and came up with this little Jam after listening to Nirvana earlier today. Never really liked the simplicity and atonal approach when it came out but I have to appreciate Kirk, Christ, and Dave's writing. Of course I added a little Proggy vibe and a solo.

    Studio Update

    I don't think I ever posted this here but I'm finally 99% done with my studio/lounge. (The wife and kids call it a lounge because of the couch lol) I came from very humble beginnings and remember my first studio setup consisted of me, an RP1 an old PC, Logitech PC Speakers in a TV entertainment...

    New Guitar and a Tune that wrote itself...

    Ever had one of those songs that just writes itself? Well, this was one of those, I didn't want to alter it anymore because it just poured out. I got this LTD EC401VF in a trade earlier this week and I absolutely love it. You get some great rock tones out of it. Nice fat piece of mahogony...

    7 string metal with the Boden OS7

    I turned this tune inside out a bit and left the verse - chorus - verse format out to dry. Its busy and moves, kinda makes you mad towards the end.... ;) Enjoy!
  45. Narsh

    To The Bitter End - Metal with no solo..

    I didn't think this one needed a solo as there was plenty going on.... The inspiration for this tune was really morbid to be honest. My wife told me a story about a man who was being treated at the hospital and basically went necrotic. His surgeries started at his feet and moved up his body...
  46. Narsh

    Mid-Week Metal for you...

    Quick little jam for the middle of the week. This one is a bit all over the place, but I like it. :)

    Sunday Rock Tune - "Something Fell"

  48. Narsh

    A Ballad with the JS100

    Had some more lingering Ideas after this morning's post... This is a strange but nice sounding tune - a little tricky on the timing here and there but still moves great if you ask me. Hope you guys like it.

    AFIII Impractical Oasis - Rock Tune

    After a week in Vegas I had to let loose a little bit... This tune is quite the ride and I hope you all enjoy the different influences that lurk in each corner of the tune. I used my Ibanez RoadCore Semi Hollow, its got a very dirty, loose, grunge sound going.

    A Can of Worms - New Tune

    It started one way and went another lol.... That's the way it always goes. I was really looking for a heavy fuzzed out tone, similar to something Foo Fighters do on some of their tunes. Ended using Fuzz, some U2 type stuff and a little Metallica-ish rhythms in there too. Hope you guys enjoy...
  53. Narsh

    Friday Night Prog

    Started out just layering clean parts and this beast wrote itself. I really enjoyed coming up with it and really hope you enjoy this one. I used my Schecter Banshee for this one who hadn't been abused heavily in a few weeks. On a side note, I freaking love my AxeFX - the ability to take...

    Not sure what got into me... I had to lay this down before hitting the sack. Guitar: Kiesel Vader with Buddha Pickups "Narshbuckers"

    Threading the Needle - New Tune

    This is another one for the Hinchbridge/Cherlindrea story. This is all about Cherlindrea's addiction. She finds herself lonely and powerless towards Hinchbridge. I was close to calling this tune "turning point" because of the anticipation of it, but I felt it better demonstrated Cherlindrea...

    Boss Katana 50

    I'm sure you guys have seen some of the videos on youtube for this thing, and I'm happy to report, it doesn't disappoint. I was looking for a small little practice amp to noodle with and not have to turn on all my studio gear. I have to say, its loud, clear and while not anywhere near an...

    The Creature in Black - awoken from a dream

    This was inspired by a freakish nightmare I had last night. I woke up around 4:30am thinking I was seeing a 7 foot creature in a greyish black robe standing at the foot of my bed. This tune captures that feeling:

    Saturday Night Rock tune with my Banshee

    Took the Banshee for a spin and surprisingly, metal did not come out tonight. Hope you guys like this one... Its kinda uplifting.

    Capturing the anticipation of finding the hidden eggs

    Something about watching my kids looking for the easter eggs we hid around the house... The first verse drove me nuts waiting for the release of the chorus. ;) Hope you guys like this one.

    Cherlindrea's Demons - New Tune

    Another one for the concept EP I'm working on.. Hope you guys like this one - I ended up using my Ibanez SIX6FDFM#$$#!@&$ whatever the freaking model name is and Yamaha 5 string bass.
  62. Narsh

    King Diamond/Mercyful Fate inspired tune

    This one came about while playing along to some old King Diamond tunes. Hence, the ominous chords. The tune will definitely be a part of the whole Hinchbridge story I was working on, either way, hope you guys enjoy the track. I used my Kiesel Vader on this one.
  63. Narsh

    New Tune after a few weeks

    Hey guys, Been a few weeks since I posted anything. Took some time off and hit Disney World with the family. This tune is dedicated to the poor guy who stood in line at 7am having crapped his pants. Yep, he crapped his pants before the ride and the stain was there all the way. (poor bastard)...

    A little Jazz?

    This was a fun little groove I had going while noddling so I threw a drum track and a bass on it for good measure. I will preface this by saying I really have no clue what I am doing. I don't know very many scales or modes or much theory. I just try to play what I hear in my head. So forgive...

    Butterscotch Pond - Prog Metal with Acoustic stuffs...

    This was another "happy little accident" as Bob Ross would say. I started out trying to hone in a tone on the axefx then started running through some exotic scale stuff and poof! This monstrosity was born. I used my Kiesel Vader loaded with Buddha pickups and an Ovation. (yeah an ovation...

    Progmetal Tune - Testing out a Vintage Recto Patch

    Really digging this vintage recto patch I've been messing with. The Kiesel sounds rediculous with it, but I ended up using the Schecter SLS because I wanted to mess with the sustainiac a bit. Hope you guys like it.

    New Tune with the Ibanez JS100 with Buddha Pickups

  81. Narsh

    Resurrected Ibanez JS100 - upgraded and sounding awesome!

    Just got my JS100 back and I must say the new pickups sound absolutely perfect!!! They are custom hand wound Buddha Pickups voiced very similar to Satch's Dimarzio set. I recorded a quick video with a few improvised solos. The patch is targeting Satch's tone which I think the guitar and...

    .strandberg Boden OS7 - Video Playthrough

    Ibanez RC365H Semi Hollow through AxeFX

    Second attempt at a video today. This time with Vegas Video. This software is much better! Making progress.

    First Video going Direct with AxeFX

    This is really my first time doing anything like this... I used my Iphone and usual recording setup to capture the audio. I had a rough time with the software I was using (filmora) which is a bit too basic for what I am looking for. I got a hold of a copy of Vegas Video so I am going to give...

    Last one for the night/weekend.

    I felt the urge to practice a bit after dinner and a round of Destiny 2. This little tune was totally accidental, started with that intro and eventually turned into the sweetest little melodies. (To me anyway) Hope you guys enjoy this one, its a heck of a lot easier on the ears than the last...
  89. Narsh

    New Tune with the Ibanez SIX6FDFM

    I really hate that damn name because I never remember it. From now own I'm calling that guitar Iron Suzie! Anyway, hope you guys like this one - lots of finger gymnastics and full throttle lines for both rhythm and lead.
  90. Narsh

    Sun Valley Shredder - Shredding

    This one was more rhythm heavy than the usual stuff. ***EDIT** I couldn't get this out of my head so as soon as I woke up I went back to it and added the middle interlude section.
  91. Narsh

    Smooth and Sexy Ibanez Semi Hollow

    So last week I purchased the Ibanez RC365H specifically for stuff like this: Let me know what you guys think. Its basically a Prince Tone with the Misha Zilla Cream M160 cab IR and some delay/verb/chorus. Simple and sweet.
  92. Narsh

    New Patch for 2018 - Thoughts?

    What do you guys think of this one compared to my usual stuff? New Patch Original Patch The patch was a tweaked version of Amin Saffar's Angl Severe patch so most of the credit goes to him - if you haven't checked out his patches on AxeChange definitely check them out.

    Obligatory NGD Tune, Video, pics

    I sold one of my Kiesel/Carvins that I wasn't using much and decided to grab this gorgeous Ibanez Six6FDFM. While I'm still trying to get used it and the pickups (still on the fence), I decided to put a record a quick tune and noodle video. Let me know what you guys think and if you have any...

    Anticipation

    Quick Little Jam with a PRS and a Gio Mikro

    Here is a tune about a guy who had crazy bad breath on the elevator yesterday when I picked my Dad up from the airport. I used my Buddha loaded PRS Tremonti SE and Rogue 6 string bass. Now, you will notice some crazy arpeggios in the middle section of the tune. I had my son's Gio Mikro...

    New Satch inspired tune using Ralph K's preset

    Was looking for some settings for an Octavia Distortion pedal and came across Ralph K's preset "SATCH Tone XL+" I gotta say, its pretty spot on. I ended up tweaking it a bit because the Schecter Sun Valley's EMG pickups needed some equing. The rest was pure inspiration and totally Satch...

    A little Late Night Inspiration

    Got a bit inspired to night and recorded this little number. I ended up using some different voicings on the bass to spice things up. I used my new Schecter Sun Valley Shredder and Yamaha 5 string bass. Hope you guys like it:
