It's odd that producers want nothing but good clean signal, so they can then make it sound as muddy as they like.
I like mud, and it can be made to sound quite expensive:
I can tune down half a step and churn that kinda stuff out all day long. 🤗
Yup, like RATM for example (although it's apparently only two out of the four that couldn't agree on anything) ... (and yep, I know they're re-forming for some gigs next year)... what they want, is an Ike Turner character to slap 'em about a bit. 😬
As a casual observer of the Aerodyne, I thought the P had a sorta flame top under the trans finish, and a modern spec P neck.
There's also an Aerodyne P Special (with the J neck), which could be the cause of some confusion...
