Or HaOlam

Project X

I originally recorded this track to test out settings on my EHX Grand Canyon delay/echo/looper in 2020. In late 2021, I had Jasper Guitar Company, LLC do a custom build for me that was a combination of their Olam and Deja VuDoo models. I call it the Or HaOlam (that’s Hebrew for “Light of the World”).

The build was captured on video and in photography from day one to completion. A backing track was needed for the video and I went through my ideas archives to see if anything would fit. I came back to this piece of music since it was short and I could easily adapt it to what we needed.

Most of the guitars on the original were replaced by new parts played on my new Jasper Olam. I can’t say enough about this axe from its tone to its looks to its feel. This became my number one guitar instantaneously.
