don't ask why it's official, i just realised that there were a lot of these about recently :D
anyway....
i don't know if any of you crazy cats listen to the Stereophonics much, but how does he get the sorta faint-ish-muted-ish-style guitar at the beginning of Pick a Part That's New?? Is it a pedal, or just some studio magic??
also, does anybody know what pickups/pickup style does Johnny from Razorlight use?? they are the same size as humbuckers/HB-sized P90s but they don't have any screws out the top of the cover, so i can't really tell
Cheers

sounds like a ton of reverb and maybe a short delay to me.
-
hmmm... might try that in a sec, cheers
-
just sounds like a really turned down amp/guitar to me...
-
Hehe, no comment on the sound, but the reason for the thread title amused me. :)
Remember what Smokey The Bear said: Only YOU can prevent 'official' forum threads!!
-
Yeah, use your volume knob or a volume pedal (or if you're really good your picking dynamics) to make the first bit quieter.
-
yeh but it don't sound like that, as when i turn down mine, depending on whether i have fuzz or not, it either goes twangy (with fuzz) or just cleans up, which isn't quite what it sounds like, dunno, may just be my ears being weird ...
-
it sounds like the AMP turned down maybe... almost like a boost pedal has been switched on after the intro or something... i dont think theres really an effect on it...
thats my view anywho.
i think picking dynamics could work like Ben said... but then Valve amps are what bring out picking dynamics really
-
that may well be why i can't get that sound
-
Sounds like some effect EQ'ing to me...if youve got an EQ pedal...maybe try taking all the mid out?
-
not got a pedal, but i;ll try it on my amp at some point
