I play a couple of Whitesnake songs in my coverband as well .. and when it comes to soloing you play my ass off

Keep it up man .. u sound & play great !
Oh yeah I "sound" great as well as I use a Fullstack with the JCM800 2203x !!

Great tone! That solo is pretty much impossible to play note for note. You do a great job at getting the feel of it. Nice!

Awesome...! I saw Whitesnake last year (Saw them over 20 years ago also) and Coverdale and the boys still have it.
I warm up with that song and "Crying in the Rain" (which is way easier) but have never mastered it yet.
You sounded great, the entire band sounded great. Good Job...! Impressive...!

Hey thanks guys that's really nice,

I'm really happy with my tone and how it cuts through the mix during the solo.

Also for those who saw my post in another thread, this is the cab that my dog pissed on and luckily there was no damage!

HOT TUBES 70 · 10-21-2009, 11:39 PM

as i had posted before , it sounds like all the guys you play with are good musicans , your lead singer lets out a great scream leadin into the solo part !!!

way cool !!

Thanks,

On drums we have Jeff Scott Soto's Brother Joey Soto. On Vocals we have Actor Byrne Offutt whose been in all 5 seasons of Futurama. On Bass is a really talented guy from Slovenia and on Rythyn Guitar is a Hollywood Veteran called Fred Neal. We got together recently to form a cover band and only had 4 rehearsals and already we've got a residency at the Cat Club next door to the Whiskey A GoGo
