Classic track from the 'retired' glam metal band that I've been meaning to do for so long but could never decide between speeding up the track to take it from D standard up to E standard tuning, or to set up one of my guitars in that tuning (tuning down with a floating trem requires readjusting the springs etc.). I got some new strings for my Hohner and I thought I'd see if I could set it up in the lower tuning and it seems stable enough, although very very light with my usual gauge 9 strings in that tuning. Speeding up the track sounded horrible, even for me... I'll be doing 2 or 3 more Motley tracks as I think there's some great riffs from Mick and Nikki that deserve some attention, although they are not a band I listen to much, if at all. :)

Some F.A.Qs
*It's a Hohner G3T which I think is pretty much a European Steinberger Spirit. (I put a decal design on it of my favourite movie, The Thing) A lot of people hate these guitars...feel free to tell me if you are one of them
*I use a Boss Me50 into a Palmer Pdi09 going direct into my computer, recording onto Pro Tools.
*I purposely have my headphone cable like that so it doesn't get in the way.
