REDEMPTION - DIANE GONE... Move ON.. BEWARE DarK Days.. THE PRAYER/THE ANSWER. HEADED FOR THE DitcH... A word from Andy about the transcriptions: Tm very honored that you are inspired enough by the Resolution CD to invest inthis collection of transcriptions. I'm really proud of my work on the record and I wanted to ensure that che transcriptions be as accurate as possible When Clint Franzen approached me about this project, I naively chought it would be a fairly easy process. [didn't realize how difficule it would be to accurately notate my particular style of feel and phrasing, To begin, I allowed Clint to video me playing each song so held have a visual reference of fingering, position, etc, Hed then transcribe into a computer program that would play back the transcription via a soundcard. Ie quite entertaining to hear a computer uy to play these tunes! I could then go through and check everything note for note to make sure it was spot-on, Major kudos to Clint for his dedication and perseverance on this project! ‘Aswith any piece of music you intend to learn, make sure you absorb as much by ear as possible, then refer to the notation for help. Good luck on your musical journey. — Andy Timmons, January 2011TRANSCRIBED BY CLINT FRANZEN. EDITED BY ANDY TIMMONS. 1. DELIver US Gear Used: Ibanez AT300, Framptone A/B Box,Tube Works Tube Driver, Fulltone Tube Tape Echo, Maestro EP-3, 1968 Marshall Super Lead100 (Plexi), 1979 Marshal JMP (master volume) ‘This was the firs track that we tackled in the guitar recording sessions at Mike Daane’s studio, The guitar tone we achieved really got the ball rolling in the sonic directio and I wanted to go: raw, natural and fat! The kkey to the recording process was deciding that there would be only one guitar performance on each song, Mean- ing, no overedubs! This really proved to be at once very challenging as well as wonderfully inspiting, I had never approached recording a record in this way and I knew it would kick my butt. And it did! When we recorded the initial basic tracks (drums, bass and scratch guitar) I was approaching the recording similar to our earlier record- ings: play some rhythm guitar during the basic tracks then solo in the solo sections co get a vibe with the band, then overdub later. This time however, I wasnt very happy with the results. I wasnt very inspired to make ‘another’ instrumental guitar record. “Ies been done and done and done,” I thought to myself. Then I remembered something Steve Vai said to me when he heard Super ‘70s and Falling Down from the That Was Then, This Is Now CD for the fist time, “I really love the sections where it's just one guitar, bass and drums... can really hear the fingers on the frets.” J thought ‘what if] could approach a whole record like this’? Bang! The inspiration I needed! I immediately decided to scrap all the previous guitar tracks and stare over. I chen figured out how to play each song with combi- nations of chords and melody. I'd done this type of arranging playing jazz in che past, but usually with a clean tone. Tes a bit more challenging when using distortion as once you add more than the root and fifth, things can get muddy fast, Ie takes time finding the sweet spot with the guitar's volume knob. Gone is a good example of this amp fairly distoreed and guitar volume backed down to @2-3. There's a nice clip of the frst tracking day on the Resolution Live DVD in the bonus Features. 2. HELIPAD Gear used: Toancz AT100, Framptone A/B Box, Tube Works Tube Driver, Fulltone TTE, Maestro EP-3, 1968 Marshall Super Lead100 (Plexi), 1979 Marshal JMP (master volume), Boss OC2, Roger Mayer Octavia. This was the second track we tackled. Again, finding a sweet spot in the verses to get the diads to speak clearly by turning the guicar’s volume down a bit. I should point our that all my guitars have a low-pass filter in- stalled on the volume pot so as to retain the top end when it’s turned down. This helps a lot in maincaining clarity ‘The middle solo section (2:49) employs the use of the Roger Mayer Octavia (similar to the device Hendrix used on Purple Hize) that provides a real ratty upper octave fuzz. It’s a quitky pedal and only really responds well when using the neck pickup on the 12th fiet or higher, For a litte added sonic funkiness, I then add a Boss OC2 half way through (3:08) This adds a lower octave and allows me to get notes to speak on some lower frets. This origin of this song (along with Ghost of You. Redemption, Move On, and Beware Dark Dayi) started ‘off in a jam session with Mitch and Mike. What a cool, relentless groove! We were very proud when this song was featured in the 2010 Winter Olympics on NBC! 3. GHost OF You Gear used: KT 300, Framptone A/B Box, Maxon Tube Screamer, Tube Works Tube Driver, Marshall JCM 800 (with outer 2 power tubes taken out to change it to 50 watts), Marshall JMP (with outer two power tubes pulled ‘out to make it 50 watts), 1968 Marshall Super Lead (100 watts), Marshall JMP (100 watts) ‘The tone on this track isa little different in that I used the amps for distortion on the first half of the song, (the 50 watt Marshalls), then switched to clean amps (100 watt Marshals) with Tube Diver in front for the drive for the end solo, 4. RESOLUTION Gear used: Ybancz AT300, 1969 Marshall Super Lead, Leslie 122, Framptone A/B Box, Re-amp Direct Box During the recording process, Mike would constantly be going into the cutting room to move the amicrophones on the guitar cab speakers (there was never any eq-ing done during the recording process all cone ‘was achieved by mic placement), so I would frequently play little funny tunes to try and crack him up while he was ‘out there. This riff just happened during one of those moments and I just kept playing it each time he would go 0 move the mic. I really had a relaxing, peaceful vibe to it. We already had 12 songs we were working on for the record but Mike said, “you should finish that!” I did later that night and brought it in the next day. We flew Mich in the next week to cut it. Very ‘Hendrix meets Daniel Lanois. Te was the last track recorded for the CD and it's a nice optimistic tune that balances some of the darker, heavier songs. This was the only song tracked with just one amp initially. We did record a direct feed off the Framp- tone and later fed that clean signal (using the Re-amp) into the Leslie 122 mic-ed in stereo to add dimension co the guitar sound. 5. REDEMPTION Gear used: Ipancz AT300, Framptone A/B Box, Tube Works Tube Driver, Fulltone TTE, Maestro EP-3, 1968 Marshall Super Lead100 (Plexi), 1979 Marshal JMP (master volume) 6. LYDIA Gear used: Ipancz AT300, Framptone a/b box, Tube Works Tube Driver, Chandler Echo, Maestro EP-3, 1968 Marshall Super Lead100 (Plexi), 1979 Marshal JMP (master volume) 7. GONE Gear used: Yoanex AT300, Framptone a/b box, Tube Works Tube Driver, Chandler Echo, Maestro EP-3, 1968 Marshall Super Lead100 (Plexi), 1979 Marshal JMP (master volume) This song also relies heavily on using of the volume knob to get the right tone. I probably had it @2.3 for the first part ofthe song, then turning it up full for the bridge (1:07). ‘Writsen on 09/11/01, so it’s fairly self-explanatory. [ was on a tour bus headed for Atlanta as the horrible events unfolded before our cyes on CNN, I had phoned my wife to make sure she was OK just as the towers were falling. AIL could say to her was was, “they're gone...they'e just..gone.” As I often do in difficult times, [had a guitar in my hands for comfort. The song wrote itself. Dedicated to all those lost on that day and their families. 8. Move ON Gear used: AT300, Framptone a/b Box, Maxon Tube Screamer, Tube Works Tube Driver, Marshall JCM 800, Marshall JMB, Chandler Echo, Maestro EP-3 Using the amp distortion on this one and you can tell by the grainier, more aggressive tone. Anothet ‘Timmons/Daane/Marine jam. 9. BEWARE DARK DAYS Gear used: Ibanez AT300, Framptone a/b box, Tube Driver, Chandler Echo , Maestro EP-3, 1968 Marshall Super Lead100 (Plexi), 1979 Marshal JMP (master volume) 10. THE PRAYER/THE ANSWER Gear used: Ibanez AT100, Framptone a/b box, Tube Works Tube Driver, Chandler Echo, Maestro EP-3, 1968 Marshall Super Lead100 (Plexi), 1979 Marshal JMP (master volume) ‘A very intimate and personal song. I wanted it to feel like a conversation with God. 11. HEADED FoR THE DiTcH Gear used: 1968 Fender Telecaster, 1964 Vox AC30, Mesa Boogie Lone Star Combo, Hughes and Kettner ‘Tabeman Plus, Maxon Tube Screamer ‘We tucked this song in at che end of the record as a hidden bonus track as it really didn't fit thematically with the rest of the record. It was just too dang good to leave off Check out the clip on the website.
