The Xiangqi Guitar has a Paulownia body, and a P90. Here the Monoprice 611800 40-Watt with 10" speaker is the amp.

That's a good-looking guitar, and quite an unusual colour too. Did you build it yourself? I played the first 6 tracks. I liked the tone on Strong Delusion, and the track reminded me of Led Zep's Since I've Been Loving You.

Good work :)

Thanks seismic... i had these Xiangqi guitars built by a Chinese outfit called 'Afanti'. I'm going to do a youtube about it. They have a Paulownia wood body; very 'resonant' (if you believe in that sort of thing).

'Strong Delusion' features the first part with the Monoprice 611800 on clean, and throughout it has the Caline Time Space Echo Delay in 'extreme slapback' or 'lo-fi reverb' mode. It finishes with the Joyo Sweet Baby for the overdriven bits.

Here's another sesh, this time with Xiangqi guitar in seafoam green, through a Kustom PH1012 amplifier:

These guitars have a P90 pickup (more or less a fat single coil, the first of which were produced by Gibson back in the 1940s or somesuch).
