Here's a clip of a Shelton Superlative Overdrive with Reverb with a slightly different circuit. The guitar is a Squier Strat, and the amp is running through a 1x12 cabinet with a Weber Michigan 12. The first two choruses are the clean channel cranked up, and the last chorus is with the preamp boost engaged. Backing track is from Scott Lerner Music.

Here are a couple clips of a gig I played with Pulsar Li (organ) and a drummer who was in from North Texas. The guitar is a Les Paul through a Shelton Superlative Overdrive. The organ is a Native Instruments B4 running on a laptop.

Sunny

 

Here are some clips off of the Tipper Gores' debut album, recorded in August 2005 at Red Boots Recording in Columbia, MO. I played lap steel and guitar on the record. The guitar amplifiers used are a Shelton Superlative Overdrive (model without reverb) and a Traynor Bassmate I modified for guitar.

You're The One

I played lap steel on this one. Recording setup is an Artisan lap steel through an Ernie Ball volume pedal into a Shelton Superlative Overdrive, with the tone controls all set at 5, the clean volume set between 6 and 7, and the overdrive set at 5 1/2.
