one-man-band adds a foot-snare drum

[Cryin_Caleb_Aaron]

I’m experimenting with a foot-snare for my one-man-band rig.

Here’s an original tune.
Check this killer guitar tone. I’m still smitten with this Supro Amulet.

Nice work Caleb

Wow, thats what I would call a fat tone. Is this straigt into the amp or is there an overdirve involved?

I’m using my Fulltone Tape Echo, which has a tube preamp, but I keep that at unity gain. It adds a little fatness, but really, the tone is the result of that Supro Vistatone bridge pickup coming thru that amp with the volume maxed.

Awesome stuff! Saw some of this on YouTube last night.
Love it!

 

[Danno]

Awesome, when you playing around town?

 

[Pops]

Old school cool, baby!

 

[El Kabong]

Right on! You kind of remind me of Vince Ray (Loser Machine) Love that tape echo!
I wish I had a basement to crank it up in.

 

[wildeman]

[Rene Asologuitar]

Wow, very well done!
Sounds great!

I'll try. I get home that afternoon chaperoning a week of Boy Scouts Summer Camp depends on my energy level. I'll ask the Mother in Law if she can watch the kids.

It’ll be a good one. The other two bands are awesome.
I’m working on finding a drummer to back me, but it’s looking like it’s gonna be a one man show.

If you were here in Southeast Iowa, I’d saddle up the kit and jump on the bill.

Oh man, that’d be awesome!!

I can’t understand why finding a drummer to play dumb rock n’ roll songs is so hard!!

It’s definitely a drummer’s market around here, and they seem to all wanna play classic rock covers or heavy metal.

My trick is:
find a guitar/bass/piano player that ALSO play drums.
You don't need Gene Krupa, you need a bass drum and a snare

Trust me, I know.
I’d settle for a monkey that can count to 4!

I was bummed when my 7th grader quit bass a year ago. There goes the family band! He's been getting quite good at drums at school this year, just rocked the snare in marching band at the parade. There's hope!

I've got three boys and nothing would make me happier to one day record a single song where they all jam with me.
