Me, and the singer are going to lay down a golden moldy...It's Only Make Believe. I added a snippet of how the instruments are coming along after day one of recording on my page...Warning: Things get pretty schmaltzy during the second verse!

Elvis? Oh no you dint!

I did baby I DID!...actually not based on Conway's, or the King's version, but the one that Robert Gordon did in the late 70's with Chris Spedding on guitar...I'm thinking of digging out my trumpet for the solo instead of doing it on the keyboard, but I want a paramedic team on hand with the paddles fired up and ready to go if I do!

Sounds really good so far, which guitar or guitars are you using and amp if you don't mind sharing.
And Schmaltzy is fine in low doses!

The amp for both guitar parts is an old Supro 2X12 combo amp. The guitar that starts, and does the arpeggio picking is a Danelectro U2 model. The tremolo guitar is a DeArmond M77T. That's a Dunlop tremolo pedal, and I have a Boss CS-3 sustainer before the tremolo so the clean chords ring out a bit longer.
