Guitar Demo Gibson custom shop Les Paul Junior 1958 re-issue Part2

Part 2 where I try to demonstrate the effect of Volume and Tone controls on the single pickup Junior using the same amp settings as part but with added Simble overdrive pedal as it is very transparent and doesn't change the signal frequency response much if at all.

I am going to get nerdy about this, so watch out!

I recorded this into my Carr Skylark with an SM57 and Rode NT1-A and Presonus audio interface and Studio One.
The amp was set quiet high and the internal attenuator used. I use a Mad Professor Simble overdrive for Part2 for some more grindy tones. The signal going in to the amp is the same and tone is transparent; just a bit more 'crunch'.

00:00 Intro Volume and tone at max
Chord
00:19 Volume at 8
00:28 Volume at 6
00:30 Volume at 4
00:48 Volume at 2
00:56 Volume at 0
00:59 Volume back up in steps of 2
01:15 Volume at max, Tone at 8
01:18 Tone at 6
01:20 Tone at 4
01:23 Tone at 2
01:25 Tone at 0
01:31 Tone back to max. Volume still at max. Then Tone backed off is steps of 2.
02:12 Tone back at max and Volume down to 8 and Tone reduced in steps of 2.
02:39 with Tone at 0, Volume increased to max - showing the effect of the Volume position on the selected Tone
02:49 Tone at 5 Volume at 10
03:02 Volume progressively reduced to clean up signal
03:55 Volume back to max. Tone at 5
04:06 Both at 10
04:14 Backing off the volume to come out of saturation a bit. A nice mix of slight crunch with an acoustic flavour.
04:50 Volume back up and Tone rolled back to 5. A thicker grindy tone.
05:06 Tone backed off more for a darker tone
05:26 Tone at 10 and Volume rolled back quite a bit for a cleaner acoustic sound
05:43 Max Volume!
06:06 The verse where the singer gets all breathy...
06:20 The chorus again
06:29 Now some random noodling and fiddling with controls
08:17 Tone sweeps for different Volume positions showing the change in Tone range depending on Volume selected.
