I had a request from someone to do some Canadian content :)
Here's the solo from Harem Scarem's "No Justice". Nice harmonic minor into a major thing.
I collaborated with my former bandmates for the backing track. I did all the rhythm and harmony guitar parts prior to shooting the video then tracked the solo while I shot the vid. The drum parts were emailed to me and I dropped over to my bass player's house on the way to do groceries. He did the bass part on my MacBook in 3 minutes.

I used a THD Hotplate with my CAA OD100se+ (gain at 4 guys..lol). I had the HP set to LOAD and I didn't use any cabs. I ran the signal for the HP into my Duet then to Logic Pro 9. I brought in several different Redwirez IRs using Space Designer (Logic).

It was really cool being able to use my OD cranked but absolutely silent..my wife was sleeping while I recorded in the basement.

Great stuff !!! Awesome job on one of Pete's best solos... He is way overlooked IMO.
My GF gives you the thumbs up too.. :thumbsup: :D
 
That was awesome Mark ..how long did that take ya to learn .you got the notes the vibrato ,the pauses .
and i hate to say it but the OD100 does sound better to my ears when cranked than the Axe clips ..

that solo reminds me a lot of Nuno .Rest in peace on some of the phrasing

Thanks!! I learned it on Wednesday night, took a bit of time. Transcribe's slow down feature really helped.

The OD100 is a killer amp!

that sounded great mark - that setup you're running sounds great too.

nice playing too love the facial expressions! 10/10 :rock: :rock: :rock:
 
I have been a Harem Scarem fan for 10 years now. Love them. Mark Day and Pete Lesperance for the win. Weight of the World is one of my favorite albums ever. Great playing and tone!
 
Harem Scarem is seriously underrated. Nice work on the solo. :thumbsup:

Thats more like it ;). Thank you for fulfilling the request! The tone AND playing was great! Anyone know what Pete used to record that album? the tone, especially for the time it was released, was amazing. The intro to Angels never cry, then the main riff after it are one of the best album openers ever in my opinion.

now just sneak Dirty Weapons by the killer dwarfs in your next vid and all the VH/Dokken riffing will be forgiven! :lol: :LOL: (kidding of course, LOVE ALL your vids, no matter what content \m/)
