Let Go - Busking and looping with a Cigar Box Guitar

VIRTUAL TIP JAR! https://www.musicxray.com/tip_jars/12975

https://bemuzic.bandcamp.com/

Haven't put a video on in AGES. Have been busy recording songs for a new album which is nearly done!
Also getting used to new computer, new video camera and new software etc etc.
Think I'm back in business now : -)

I've been trying out taking my Roland AC33 amp busking, and putting the output from that into a Zoom H2N to try and get better sound on my videos.
I can't carry that amp and my suitcase pedal board, so just used a Boss FS-6 switch to control the looping (no undo!!)
I also mixed in some of the camera sound to add a bit of atmosphere...
Filmed on a GoPro 4 Silver
More videos to come when I get them sorted out!

thanks turtlehead. Shouldn't be too long till the albums finished. Am going to put a video of one of the new songs soon played on my Canjo when busking, with the camera on my head!

Gary, yes the standard of music seems very high in folk clubs. Very friendly too at the few I've been to.

  The downside of the AC33 is that if you make too loud a noise suddenly, the volume drops, which is very annoying. I've learnt how to avoid it, but don't like the amp dictating how I play! Still apart from that it's a great sound...

  Don't think there is any such thing as the perfect amp!

thanks antonio, it wasn't that cold, but I like to wrap up as hate being cold!
