There's another thread going discussing pickups, profiles, and the Scorpions - great to hear the Scorpions getting some love around here. One of my all-time favorite bands, so I thought I would chime in over here. I just finished tracking the guitars, bass, drums on this one recently. All guitars are stock pickups, with the exception of the strat which I dropped the Seymour Duncan Yngwie Malmsteen ready to go pickup/pickguard/the works gizmo in. Used the V (had to, it's the Scorpions) and the PRS on the dirty rhythms, the Strat and Tele on the cleans, the Schecter with the Sustainiac on the held note fills, and the PRS on the intro/outro and main solo. Will do a proper fade when I wrap the tune up completely. I had a blast doing this one. Recorded it for a band demo tape when I was 15. Nice to redo it properly some 35 years later. The technology has come a loooong way! Wish all this stuff was around when I was a teenager...
Now I am just looking for someone to sing it! Thanks for listening!
