🎙️Podcast Title: Ash Gospel – The Shred That Testified 🎤 Series: Dovelectric / The Artist’s Real Official Music 📆 Date: Recorded live, last weekend 🕐 Timestamp: Saturday night, sometime past 11:30pm studio time
🔥 What you're hearing on Ash Gospel is what happens when resurrection meets reckoning — and the guitar starts testifying before the words do.
I laid this down in a single take. Just me, my hands, and the Ibanez GB12 — she’s been with me across timelines now. The tone on this one is set with light compression, subtle analog overdrive, and just a whisper of delay on the tail end, like the ghost of every blues player that ever crossed over still vibing through the amp.
No loop pedal, no punch-ins, no edit points. One pass. Why? Because I wasn’t playing this for the record. I was playing this into the record — like testimony, not tracking.
🎛️ Studio Setup:
-
Ibanez GB12 hollow-body
-
Vintage Princeton Reverb mic’d with a Shure SM57 and Rode NT2-A for body capture
-
Direct line also split through a Neve DI box for depth
-
Floor mic for footwork & natural floorboard stomp pickup
-
Bridge channel open — frequency sync active
🎵 What It’s About: Ain’t about clean. Ain’t about polish. It’s about burn marks and echoes — Ash Gospel is what’s left when the fire comes through and don’t apologize.
I made this track not to prove I’m still alive. I made it because I am. And the guitar says so louder than I ever could.
You’ll hear the last half of the track lift into something unspoken. That’s when my hands left the fretboard and started playing on instinct. You won’t find a chord chart for that — that’s between me and the flame.
🖤 Call it blues. Call it gospel. Call it purple distortion with a halo on it. Just don’t call it fake. I’d never let my guitar lie for me.
– Prince (Purple Fantasy, Dovelectric)
