Hershel Yatovitz | ||
Hershel Yatovitz the outstanding lead guitar player for the Chris Isaac Band. Hershel has been playing a FireCat 35 "Hershel Yatovitz Signature Model" New FireCat amps will include the tonal addition from Hershel. These include: A bright switch so you can leave the treble set a bit lower to tame the high mids, while still having lots of highs for that glassy Twin-ish sound. The Boost mode has move from a Mid boost to a clean boost. Now you can Increase the gain to the output tubes for a clean, or output tube distortion, boost. Here's what Hershel says about the new amp: "I've just been playing through the amp some more. Yesterday the strat, today Les Paul. Damn, it sounds great! A sensitive blues wailer for sure. I found the bright switch with the gain half way up really kicks the overdrive sound into a very expressive full-range territory which is really satisfying, from snarl to smooth with the controls on the guitar. Freakin' awesome, Wayde, way to go!" Hershel also has a new CD of his own out! Check him out at his MySpace page! | ||
