Barber 1/2 Gainer Clips

Sign in to disble this ad
So, I don't have clip chops, but I threw some stuff together real quickly.
I don't know if these really illustrate what it is about, but I really like it. The bass is my maple/alder Big Al strung with 5 month old DR Sunbeams.



Both clips start off clean. The first clip goes clean, very slight grit, near max gain, mid gain, then I mess with the tone and mid knobs, then throw in a Swollen Pickle version for the heck of it.

Second clip goes clean, slight grit, medium gain, max gain, then I start doing riffs with the Octamizer clean, then low and max, then swollen pickle, then I throw all three pedals on with the gainer at max gain.

Maybe we should start a "No Clip Chops Club"?

Cool thanks. I thought the max gain on the 2nd clip (before octave) sounded awesome.

I would also like to point out how bonecrushing the 1/2 Gainer + Octave could have been if you hadn't been playing that riff

Sounds a bit more trebley than my SR, but I think thats mostly due to the fact your dry signal is treblier than mine. Sounds pretty good, perhaps has slightly more gain on tap too.

Cheers for the clips.
