Welcome! Whether you are looking for some rhythm guitar parts for a song you’ve started, a loop pack or even a tasteful guitar solo, you’ve come to the right place. I’m super versatile but favorite genres are Pop, R&B, Folk and Hip Hop. My turnaround time is typically 3-5 business days. I love making great music! Look forward to working with you

What I Offer:
Guitar Recording
Loop Packs
Sample Recreation
Production

All guitar tracks are recorded in Pro Tools. I use a mixture of analog pedals and high quality digital plug-ins. I pride myself on my sound, focusing on clarity while adding textures for character. My go-to guitars are my vintage 1987 Gibson Les Paul for a warm full sound and my two Fender Stratocasters for a more bright punchy sound. All stems are delivered wet and dry and clearly labeled for convenience.

I am confident that I can achieve any sound you are looking for, so shoot me a message and let’s get started!

Interview with Sheldon Ferguson

  1. Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?

  2. A: My biggest influences for recording guitar include Nile Rodgers, Charlie Handsom, Tomi Martin and Paul Jackson Jr. to name a few. For creating parts I studied a lot of classic R&B records by bands like the Isley Brothers and Tony Toni Tone. I came up listening to classic rock as well so guitar virtuosos such as Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, Slash and Jimmy Page had a big effect on me as well.

  3. Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.

  4. A: My most common requests include recording guitar on top of a produced track and creating loop packs.

  5. Q: What do you like most about your job?

  6. A: Making great music with great people. I love meeting new clients who are passionate about what they do and helping them bring their visions to life.

  7. Q: Can you share one music production tip?

  8. A: Keep things simple. Utilizing space allows the song to breathe and makes it easier for the listener to both digest and retain.

  9. Q: What do you bring to a song?

  10. A: I specialize in making songs memorable. Creating strong instrument parts is key to do doing this so I play and produce from this approach.
