Featuring the new EMG Fat 55 set, Richie Faulkner plays over the Andy James track "Find The Feel" (provided by Jam Track Central) in the video below.
“The Judas Priest guitarist was handed a set of our new Retro Active pickups when he showed up to the studio and was happy to take them for a test drive. Richie truly put the Fat 55 set to the test. Listen how these pickups respond to his every move, creating a tone, clarity, and look that is new to EMG.”
Faulkner was interviewed by Sweetwater editorial director Mitch Gallagher during Making Hard Rock Look Easy, a three-day recording master class which was held October 20th-22nd at Sweetwater’s campus in Fort Wayne, IN.
Talking about the progress of the songwriting and recording sessions for Judas Priest’s follow-up to 2014's Redeemer Of Souls album, Richie stated: "I just flew straight back out of the UK, straight to Sweetwater. We've just been in the studio for a couple of months putting songs together. We haven't started the recording process yet, but we're recording demos; we're recording songs that work without the production to save them, if you know what I mean. But the core value… We're putting down some grassroots ideas and fleshing them out for the next Priest record. So we're gonna go into the studio to start recording in January. So it should be out sometime next year. But we're not touring next year. So we're gonna be touring, hopefully, in 2018."
