Is this the name of the song or is this referring to an "impulse" used in digital amp sims?

I enjoyed the video. Do you remember what settings you were using? I wish I could see the toggle switch position. It is good to hear what an S-500 can sound like. Very nice looking guitar as well.

It's the name of the song, just a random creation. :whome:

For the chord intro I used neck and middle pu, with the volume rolled off. The single notes start with the neck pu only at full volume, which remains then the same until the end.
Amp Simulation was the Pod X3 and as usual I used a 60's Marshall Plexi with a 60's Marshall 4x12 cab simulation. In the second part I added a tube screamer simulation.

Thanks to everyone for comments and listening! :)
