Gretsch White Falcon - Flats vs Wounds

A thinly disguised excuse to wind up a wonderful guitar - here is a comparison video of flat wound and round wound strings on a Gretsch white Falcon. Oh yes!

Brooding

I recorded the guitar through my Cornford Hurricane using a UA OX Box which I have been very impressed with - lovely bit of kit. 

This was a great opportunity to lean into some pedals with a Vemuram Jan Ray

A Wren and Cuff Box Of War

A cheeky Keeley Mini Compressor

And a Danelectro Back Talk reverse delay

You may be surprised at the results - I certainly was!

Until next time, stay tuned
