Thunder Road - Bruce Springsteen (Cover)

Музыка

If I had one song to play on repeat for an extended stay on a desert island, Thunder Road by Bruce Springsteen would be my hands down choice. The acoustic version, of course. Thanks for watching!

    I used Ear Trumpet Labs mics - both the vocal and guitar mics are ETL Delphina's. The guitar mic is a bit hard to see because it's the "dark" Delphina which a cosmetic treatment only, the capsules and circuits are the same. The guitar mic is about 12 inches from the body, pointed at the bridge at an angle. The vocal mic is also about 12 inches from my face maybe a little more. The vocal mic pics up a fair amount of guitar too, mostly the high end. Thanks for listening and commenting!

    Good catch! It's a Martin CEO-4R, an homage to the J-45. It has rosewood back and sides and an adirondack spruce top, which makes it more like a J-45 Deluxe Rosewood model. It also has the longer Martin scale length - 25.5" vs the 24.75" that is typical of Gibsons. Looks like a J-45, sounds like a Martin.
