Venus (NGD Demo)

Community Recordings Audio-Video Of You Playing

There was a request on my NGD post about my PRS S2 Special for a demo of how it sounds. So I’ve thrown together a quick demo of Shocking Blue’s Venus (SoundCloud link) where all of the sounds originate from the new guitar, recorded through my Katana amp (except the one acoustic track). It’s got

  • Rhythm Right: Acoustic recording of the semi-hollow
  • Rhythm Left: Electric recording neck pickup, Katana clean channel setting
  • Lead, bass, and one little transition bit with various guitar settings and Katana effects.

Sounds great David!
I love it when folks demo their new instruments. Thanks.

Love that song too!
I like to watch a couple different versions of shocking blue do that one. Great choice of a tune to demo your new guitar on.
Ya did good on the intro too. Not a easy rhythm to replicate and get it right imho. Good job on that.

Thanks. Among the other tracks on my SoundCloud, A Splash of Red is effectively a demo of my BMG Special.

I’ve always thought Venus was a great song. Working from the official tab on Ultimate Guitar it wasn’t terribly hard to pick up the rhythm part. The solo would take me a fair bit more effort.
