I also like to experiment a bit with organ tones. Obviously, I\u2019m no Jon Lord but we got some interesting sounds on some of the Deep Purple covers, for example. Some of that is actually a Roland synth through a VOX amp, through a Marshall cab and mic\u2019ed. I saw how he [Jon] had a Hammond, a fuzz box and a Marshall Major, but I wanted something slightly less aggressive sounding. I also use a CollaB3 VST which is really neat and free of charge.<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While most of the tracks are ostensibly \u201cguitar oriented\u201d, quite a few other common and less common instruments are involved.
