Recording an original - MIJ Strat overdose

[jrf]

So I've received several comments on my cover videos about people wanting to hear my original work instead of doing covers... Here's one I wrote (co-wrote, my singer handled the lyrics and vocal melody), and re-recorded the guitar parts for this video. Vocals, bass and drums recorded by my talented bandmembers. Wall of text below for those interested in the nitty gritty. In the meantime, enjoy the tones of my beat up 93 MIJ Strat though a Vox AC15. It's in C# standard tuning for most of the parts.

Lead guitar (C# standard tuning): Light drive, main arpeggiated riff and rhythmic triads, double delays.
Slide guitar (E standard): Light drive, ebow, volume swells, modulated reverb, double delays
Solo (C# standard): Thick lead tone (Timmy - BB Pre - Crunchbox), panned double delays
Rhythm guitar 1 (C# standard): Clean, finger plucked chords, single dotted delay
Rhythm guitar 2 (C# standard): Overdrive, picked chords/strummed chords
Rhythm guitar 3 (C# standard): Heavy overdrive, doubled panned L/R, heavy open chords (Timmy - BB Pre)
Shimmer guitar (E standard): Clean, picked triads, shimmer reverb

Signal chain: MIJ 1993 Strat - Timmy - BB Pre (always on) - Tone Press (always on except for solo) - Crunchbox - Visual Volume - Strymon Bluesky Reverb - DD20 (dotted quaver, modulation) - DD20 (quaver, modulation) - Vox AC15 - mic-ed with Shure Beta 58A - Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 - mixed in Reaper.
