I remember this one, and it was a good one
it would be nice to have it on the lll... maybe, one day

If I can get FracTool maybe I can remember what I did? We'll see...

That really is a great tone Iaresee, I'm going to have a crack at reverse engineering it, sounds like you put a Chorus on at the end for the Zappa tones, I don't suppose you remember which one? Would that ML Sound Labs CK's Brit 4 x 12 still be your go to IR or have you found something else you prefer?

@Tompski good find. That’s so old I can’t remember a thing about it. I’d probably try LT’s TV Mix. Though the ML IRa were mixed quite different from everyone else’s IRa.

@iaresee you really nailed that Watermelons tone, I tried but got a good Strat tone but not THAT tone! I think we need your skills on this! Do you remember what pickups were in that Strat?

If it was my old Schecter it’s a set of MonsterTones.

Interesting, Ceramic magnets, I wonder if that’s part of the secret sauce.
