Shoot ‘em Down by Twisted Sister Cover

This is my second attempt at recording a cover song.   This is such a fun song, I actually play this song really well minus the solo, but because I am in front of the camera I have  hard time staying in rhythm and I try not to mess up in which I do anyways.  But I am hopefully as I get better, it wont be so bad playing in front of the camera.

The gear I used is a Fender HSS strat in the humbucker position and I used a Fender Frontman 212r AMP in clean channel with a guitar USB interface out to the amp into the clean channel.  I do this because the amps built in distortion isn’t the greatest.  How ever, I plan on buying the Boss ME-25 Multi-effects pedal which will give me the sound and noise reduction that I am looking for.
