I use tons of distortion on my lead guitar sound. Always have. It's a legacy of my Tony Iommi influence. I was playing around tonight on my Les Paul and actually got the urge to clean up my lead guitar patches on my preamp a little bit. That's a first. I still like a really saturated, heavy guitar sound, but I may have gone a bit far recently. You can hear it on the primary lead guitar on One Day in August. It's all nice and juicy, ala Zappa, but might be a little too fuzzy for its own good. This weekend, I need to spend a little time tweaking the settings in my Axe-FX to gain a little more sonic clarity.
I'm also going to have the Great Gibson SG Dilemma of 2008 resolved by the end of this weekend, as well. I've got a couple of good candidates for the SG I plan to keep around.

- Hi, my name is Chris Oberst, and this blog is the nerve center for my music project, Council of One. My goal is to combine music, words and visual art into an unbearable multimedia extravaganza! This blog will focus on my own music and its creation, but I also will be discussing the music I love (and hate) and the bloodsucking industry around it.
