Thanks Stig...when I've sat and listened to Geordie I've thought he sounds like Dennis De Young out of Styx but he'd rather I said Dio! We're gonna have some fun writing stuff tho... :icon_thum

That was awesome Chris!! Man the POD sounds great. When you said you wanted to remove the guitar I thought you'd lost your mind cause it already sound great to me. You proved me wrong! This is kickass!!!:bowdown:

Thanks Pod...nah, when I went in the studio to record the Unchained demo, I hadn't really got the stuff off as well as I'd have liked and the phaser setting was far to over-the-top. I also think the POD xt sounds much better recorded than the Peavey 5150...and easier to carry! :D

Incredible Wah! Fuckin' Right! Well it is a contest, so instead of saying I pulled a hamstring or broke a string, I'll just enter mine and see what happens. I used the actual VH backing, cause I wasn't sure about the tuning in wah's backing and I knew what VH's was, so I'll credit the VH boys for this backing.

Hold on to your ass!!

This is a pretty sweet battle between two of the greats here on this site. I have to give wah the edge on this one, they were both excellent takes though, wah's seemed more raw and had more of the feel on this one. I really like how crispy J-marts picking is too it's like a machine gun and the solo was bad ass. Overall a pretty tough one to judge, hats off to you both.

Battle of the Titans here!! You guys are THE BEST (along with Terry) imo doing VH!!
Outstanding, outstanding stuff!!! Just floored me to hear these!! Winner? Both of you guys!!! The vote..? I tend to lean to J-Mart. I think the tone being the difference. Hard to beat that Modded amp he uses. Of all the POD's on Earth, I want Chris's!! His tones are excellent!! The playing on both is purely sonic heaven!!! :icon_thum :icon_thum

Thanks guys,
I'm sure Wah's in bed so I'll try and speak for him a little. I honestly don't know who I'd vote for either if I were an outsider. Wah, though I've never met him in person, is a good friend. We were both looking forward to this and I think it brought the best of us out. I had a blast recording this and both Wah and I have a kick ass version of this song with ourselves playing! It's like a sore pecker, you can beat it! Thanks for listening everyone.

Aye!! Straty kicks ass!! I still remember the Holdsworth stuff he posted...blew my mind!!! I have some of his stuff saved for inspiration. Hopefully I didn't forget any others that are killer VH players. Saved both you guys from this battle.
