Take it to the Limit (Video)

Postby Phil McGarrick » 12 Jul 2013, 16:14

"Take It to the Limit" is a song by the Eagles from their fourth album, One of These Nights, written by Randy Meisner, Don Henley and Glenn Frey. The third single from the album, it was released on November 15, 1975

This is my own instrumental arrangement suggested by my friend John Skelton.
I used a Carl Martin “Plexi Tone” to give the guitar a bit of edge as well as my Alesis Quadraverb Q2 patch 0-36

Sound recorded in Cubase direct (no amp)
Video made using 3x Sony SR12 camcorders and edited in Sony Vegas.

The backing track I found on YouTube

Many thanks to yourkaraoketv for sharing.


Hope you like “Take it to the limit”

Cheers Phil

Nice one Phil - I particularly like the tone that the Plexitone pedal gives.

Hi Phil
Superb as always.
Interesting sound from the Plexi.
Strong playing and great sound - I can hear the words in your "picking".
I know what you mean about not playing. Since the "burns" incident I have lost the motivation a bit, although I have three SFs part done. It'll come back.
Well done, Sir
cheers

Thank you very much Fred and Roger for your nice comments.Always appreciated.!
The Plexi Tone is quite different from my Boss SD-1 as long as you don't wind it up too much ! :D
It was so hot today so DIY and gardening fell second place to guitar playing.

Hoping to do a duet with son Andrew for my next one - a Hank special that took lots of practice.

All the best... Phil
