Guitar Recording of the Day

I have pretty much nothing to do for a month, so I can once again spend more time on music.

Today's recording is another original that I started writing over the summer and then abandoned for a while, but I felt inspired tonight and managed to write enough stuff for a full song. It's a fairly heavy piece (at least as heavy as I could make it with a single-coil guitar) with some interesting effects and a nice groove. One of the main riffs kind of reminds me of Alice In Chains, so for lack of a better name, I called the song "Chain Reaction."

Production crap that nobody cares about:

- Opening guitars = Line 6 Chunk Chunk amp model with Tape Eater modulation effect

- Distorted rhythm guitar = Same as above, but without the effect

- Lead guitar in verse = Connor 50 amp model with auto wah and some sort of delay and modulation effects that I don't remember now

- Bass guitar = Holy crap, an actual bass guitar (played with a 1 mm Dunlop Ultex rounded triangle pick because my fingers are too small to play bass properly)

Anyway, check it out:
