Sally's song - The Nightmare Before Christmas (Soloway + Eleven Rack)

[adamquek]

Hey guys,

I've been kicking around a solo guitar arrangement for this song over the last week. I've been wanting to do this for YEARS but never got around to it until this week. It's still rough around the edges but I like how it's coming together

I used my chambered 6-string Soloway with the neck Lollar Imperial pickup. I recorded the DI guitar tone on the ElevenRack, then re-amped 2 versions. One is the Black Duo model with a hint of reverb, the other the DC Vintage with some reverb/delay/chorus.

Hey, that is pretty cool! I love that movie and largely because of the music. Great song to arrange! Partial to the DC Vintage version. Thanks!

 

[Hackubus]

Sounds great!

 

[Jim Soloway]

Very cool Adam. Well played and well arranged and VERY clever. I think I'm partial to the DC Vintage version as well but they both sound really good.

Very nice. I prefer the second version (Black Duo). Warmer.

 

[Astronome]

A wonderful melody, from a favorite movie around the rh household; very nicely harmonized and rendered.

Thank you for doing it, and for sharing it.

Hey guys,

Thanks for taking the time to listen to it and your (very) kind comments. I'm really glad you enjoyed it!

 

[Aidanspaghetti]

Excellent!
Doing that fine guitar justice

 

[burningyen]

Nice. The DC version sounds like it has more compression on it too. I like both but prefer the Black Duo one.

 

[Thor]

Loved both. The DC version is a bit more haunting with the chorus.

Thanks for sharing this!

 

[abergdahl]

Sounds great...both.. maybe I prefer the DC version---

 

[Crazyquilt]

What a great arrangement of a great song. I prefer the Black Duo version; I think the darker tone suits the material better, although it might just be my congenital allergy to chorus.

 

[Bussman]

I've always wanted to do this tune!

Great arrangement. I prefer the Black Duo. Very cool!
