Tweed Twin, Mercury Mags and Veteran 30's..

Audio is a little bassy, the twin has a very LARGE sound! Couldn't really get the amp as loud as I wanted.
Researching a way to lower the input gain on the built in mic. on the Flip Ultra HD. Diggin the Warehouse Veterans!!

@ Mars: Its a very light Alder body with Custom Shop 54's and a Vitamin Q .022 cap. The neck and middle ar quite chimey and spongey as opposed to Fralins or lollars. They are not as defined but break up really nicely when hit hard, although the bridge pup on these is kinda shrill. Cheers!!

Thanks for the info. I'm looking for pickups for a new strat (already have some Fralin and Suhrs). I like the sound of these. Will look em up.Thanks again.

Cheers !!!

Hey brother,
Amp and guitar sound killer. Great playing too. Kinda sounds like you have a compressor on but that's prob just the flip hd mic.

Great clip.

Lorne

Lorne, cheers to you and good ear! I am using a CS-3... I know , not nearly as good as it can get with the boutique options out there but I like the tone control and it kinda smooths out the peaks and valleys between the pups and the amps frequencies. Happy New Year!!

I love the CS-3, it gets undeserved criticism. It just takes a little more care in setting it right. The Nashville session dudes do great things with it. Sounds awesome in your clip.
