Guitar tone is one of those subjective things, that sometimes isn't so subjective. There are a few basic sounds that almost EVERY pro guitarist uses all the time as jumping off points for their sounds, live or in the studio. Today we're hanging out with my good friend ‪@philipconradmusic‬ and talking about how to get the most essential tones out of a guitar rig, and what they're good for.

1:23 clean tone - a foundation, not super clean - push the amp to get some compression, some saturation (without breaking up) 3:36 edge of breakup - clean when playing lightly (some compression and saturation), but go into distortion when 'digging in' - a boost can help add some beef to a clean tone 6:00 lead sound - possibility: clean sound + pedal (different pedals = different flavours), .. sustain, smooth vs articulation (more high end) - can be used for chords (omit the 3rd, power chords!) - too much distortion => compression => buried in the mix -> back off the distortion! 10:05 delay + reverb - predelay lets the reverb get out of the way of the attack - slapback delay, dotted 8th sound (palm muting adds percussion) - play TO the effect (usually simplify) 14:15 modulation - add texture to a simple part - tremelo, especially for rhythm (doesn't necessarily have to sync up with the song's beat) - flanger / phaser / univibe is great for chords - subtle pitch modulation with reverb is awesome no pedalboard shot 😞

How do you not hurt your ears if the only way to get a good clean tone is to turn your volume way up?

@sundaynightdrunk 6 месяцев назад

@@raucousriley143 The vast majority of tube amps have a Master volume. That controls the overall loudness of the amp. They'll also have a Volume (sometimes per-channel) or a Gain knob. That control is what Rhett's talking about when he says to "turn up the amp." He could have explained that better, but the other guy probably already knows from playing bass. When you increase the gain, but keep the Master Volume low, you can have lower levels of loudness and still saturate the tubes to get that breakup.

@raucousriley143 6 месяцев назад

Hey thanks for the reply. I think maybe why I don't understand is because I don't have a tube amp. I have a boss katana. I should take his tone course. I've been playing guitar for 20 years but never play electric because I don't like my tone

@sundaynightdrunk 6 месяцев назад

@@raucousriley143 The Katana's very popular but man I didn't like its tone. If you can afford it, find a small tube amp and try it out. 15 watts get pretty damn loud, and 30 is giggable. If you like Rhett's tone, you'll dig a tube amp.

@maxpeck4154 6 месяцев назад

I used black panel Fender amps with a tube screamer since 1995 and never touched the volume control on the guitar. Rhett's videos opened my eyes to dynamics and using the amp and guitar volume knob. Bought a 20 watt cathode biased amp with power scaling. Now I set the amp dirty and roll the guitar volume back to clean it up. I can get any sound I want without touching the amp and I no longer own an overdrive pedal of any kind. It's been my setup for 2 years now. I wish I had learned that years ago.

@sundaynightdrunk 6 месяцев назад

It's actually pretty uncommon to get *all* your tones just from a cranked amp. Most will set it up for rhythm crunchiness on the amp, roll the volume back for cleaner parts, and hit a pedal for lead tones. But hey, whatever works for you is your own jam!

@maxpeck4154 6 месяцев назад

@@sundaynightdrunk Well, I have a reverb pedal and a delay for some slapback. Overdrive pedals? Nope. Don't own one and don't need one. The key is the amp. Could I do what I do with a Twin Reverb? Not in a million years. My amp has a gain control, a master volume, AND power scaling, and it's only about 20 watts.

@HeartcoreMitRA 6 месяцев назад

Really love you explaining one of the main things in terms of electric guitar. That the playing, all the effects and stuff - it's not one-directional thing. It's not just Action. It's InterAction. When you have to let the effects live, let them work, interact with them, instead of just forcefully pushing them to a certain result. And this approach differ from a typical shredder-style sound when you push the hardware to fit your technique. You can't do that with fuzz, for example. You have to let it breathe.

Maybe one of the best intro to effects videos I’ve ever seen. Bookmarked to send to friends getting started with guitar. I had to kind of just figure a lot of this out over the years of playing. This would have saved me a lot of time and money. Also Philip Conrad is such a humble guy! He’s one incredible bass player. Cool to see him humbly coming into this video as guitar is not his main instrument. But man can that guy tear it up on the bass :)

Great, informative video. Although I keep it simple with a cocktail of slight gain, slight delay, and slight reverb about 99% of the time, I have found that by randomly turning on an effect, I immediately start playing something different. I just hit a button and/or turn a knob on my Katana and see what comes out. Boom, inspiration. At least it works for my budget-gear-low-talent self!

@compucorder64 6 месяцев назад

I wasn't that happy with guitar reverb, until I started to run the really good modern reverbs into matching stereo amps (VOX ACs here too - love them with delays). A mono spring is nice, but it's more of an effect than a sense of space. But a great stereo reverb into stereo amps, it's like moving from flattened painting to one with perspective. Similar, but to a lesser extent, with delays. Moving it to stereo / ping bong, with the dry sound in the middle, helps seperate too. It's one of those unfortunate cost things with guitar tone, that it's hard to get away from the fact that a really great reverb sound isn't cheap to setup. Wasn't that into phaser flangers until I started using the ones in the delay loop of the Polymoon, set at a lower level, or the send/return of a DOD rubberneck so the phaser or flange is just on the delay trails. I find them a bit too much if they're too heavy. Similar with chorus, I really dig the stereo chorus sounds of CE-2W, TC SCF+, DC-2W into stereo amps. Live, I might not go with stereo amps, but for recording I prefer it.

One hack to new players is - usually set up your guitar a bit brighter than you initially might think it’s good. Once the bass and the kick drum come in with the low end, your “too bright” guitar becomes great in the mix.

@Fernando-ry5qt 6 месяцев назад

@ It is understandable, since it is a tone that allows you as a player to express yourself by means of intensity, speed, different attacks and volume, gives you a lot of tools. Playing clean has that too but the contrast is a lot less dramatic

@Joey_McElroy 6 месяцев назад

So personally what I love to do, at least at home, playing out…places get weird, but I like to absolutely crank the amp into saturated distortion, then just use my volume knob to control my gain and volume. Works great! And sounds glorious. So usually unless I’m playing lead, my volume on my guitar lives between 6 and 8. Then when time for lead, just roll the throttle full on. 😊

@davidkieltyka9 6 месяцев назад

“A little hair on the notes” is how Leo Fender put it. I like a squeaky clean neck pickup sound with a touch of compression to add some weight along with a simple delay or reverb to create ambience.
