Trying not to wake the neighbors, so tested out the new V with my old standby Peavey Studio Pro 112. Threw together a shit drum track and played the very first ever "keep yer fingers movin" song I ever learned from back in the time of the dinosaurs and trilobytes and shit.

Used Mave's production technique of three axes grindin'. No bass 'cause it's late and I don't play it unless I can rumble the house.

Considering that's a 1x12 solid state open back? I think the axe is slingin' some signal in the "that'll do, Pig," direction.

Yeah man that sounds great!!!!! Nailed the classic Megadeth vibe!!!!

Thanks, Billy. Funny thing, I've been using this setup to add a bit of brightness to my DSL recordings, which seem a touch dark through the Mesa cab. 6-6-8 on the dials, and it's definitely in that Megadeth brightness camp. Not my usual, but it works for those finger movin' riffs.

I hadn't even read the post, and I was like "This sounds just like old Megadeth"

Nice work!

Thanks, man. I'm thinking I may actually keep working on this one. It's just such a fun song to play.
