jtexUsed by J-Tex; “..albums done on this amp while I was singing in a Shure mic on the album “Misery” by me (J.Tex).   Listen to this on spotify,  I-Tunes or many other places…

Also on our latest album “House On The Hill” by J.Tex & The Volunteers – this is the vocal thing on almost all the tracks through the Vox 705.”

705Producer Carl Granberg (Carl’s Place)  adds this:

“..The Red Album (misery) and the House on the Hill album were both done with the amp on the vocals and always live in the room, never re-amped.  This is how I recorded J Tex vocals;  the SM7 is the microphone used almost always.  The amp’s lack of high end for vocals is perfect, especially with the fuzzy low mid, which I love.  I’m happy Jens (j tex) sold it to me, I’ll never let it go.  As well as vocals,  I’ve used  the 705 as a tool for re-amping and distorted drums/percussion, with the Flea47 mic.”
