Recorded using the SG-12 (Chapman 12 string Stick Guitar)

11. Banyan Tree Blues Jam
This is another one of those songs that was captured under the banyan tree exactly as I described above. It's just one take with no overdubs or editing. I had recently got my first SG-12 and I was completely in love with it so I decided to hook up all kinds of effect pedals including Emmett Chapman's vintage pedal The Patch of Shades
(s/n #002). I almost forgot to use some of the pedals but remembered towards the end of the song that I had a nice distortion and I used for only a few bars. After a year of experimenting with the new SG-12 I released an album titled 'Rainbows' that was recorded entirely live under the banyan tree. It was also the first record to feature the SG-12 Stick Guitar exclusively as a solo instrument. Here is a photo of me performing in a concert at Banyan Tree Park in front of the old Lahaina courthouse:
