Here are a couple of numbers that I played at the Irish Steel Festival (unaccompanied) during my set last October. I have just recorded them while I have some down time in my studio. Please forgive the slight distortion in a couple of places (It's live and one take folks!). Can anyone guess which of my guitars I used and through which amp?

Lovely work Ken! This will be interesting.. please don't reply too soon ....... let the guessing commence!
I''ll kick off with .. The Infinity through the Webb, sounds like a Buck Reid lick there at the end! 'NYCE' :guitar:

Very sweet indeed, right up to that last fantastic resolution. I'll posit a very uninformed guess at a Sho-Pro into a Peavey. (I haven't got a clue)

Keep 'em coming guys, and see who has the best ears. :lol:

I think that decent multi media speakers or headphones would obviously help. 8-)

The piece of paper I pulled out of my hat reckons Sho Pro --> Webb 8-)

Sho Pro and Telonics Combo.
What is first prize Ken?

Billy, first prize is a weekend with Malcolm McMiser at his gaff. Second prize is a week with him.

Well, I think it's time to disclose.

The steel was my Infinity, and I used my Webb amp. So Mr Adams was absolutely spot on! I miked the amp using an AKG condenser mike. I think the Infinity sounds quite Emmons-like, so I 'fattened' up the EQ on the Webb to get the tone I like.

Ken, I knew that! but the thought of spending a holiday with Malcolm eating all those donuts just put me off :lol:
