Cover of She Shook me Cold by David Bowie.
BASS: Danelectro Longhorn reissue (amazing). Zvex SHO to boost a bit and split the signal between the high-Z DI on a UA preamp and an early 70's Ampeg V2 with a cheap Yamaha 4x10. V2 was turned up to about 6 or 7 and going crazy but the cab maxed out its SPL pretty quickly. We ran a decent amount of the DI bass to the monitors in order to hear it in the room above the drums and guitar. Cab was mic'd with....something. I think some type of Sennheiser.
GUITAR: Gibson R8, BYOC tonebender, Teese pic wah, early 70's 50w Marshall into 4x12 with G12H-30's and greenbacks. Mic'd with Royer ribbon mic.
DRUMS: Crazy old mismatched 40's and 50's shells recovered, cut down and bearing edges redone, matching vintage hardware....two floor toms, HUGE 26" bass drum that's only about 14" deep. We set a second huge old skinny marching bass drum in front of it as a resonator. Can't recall the mics other than one of those Rode XY pattern stereo small condensers as an overhead.
Lexicon rack reverb, mostly on the drums. Empirical Labs Fatso Jr. for compression on bass and drums, not so much on guitar. Protools for everything else I think.
