@@kamekomiyamora Can relate to that, I live in a flat and everytime i try to play overdriven (since I don't have a distortion pedal) my neighbours knock in like 2 minutes or so. So when i first played a song with overdrive, i was amazed how different and hard it was, muting and stuff is really important. also man, having a break for a year just because you weren't used to play with an amp is kinda too much.. :/ Don't go hard on yourself

@juandiegotapia7858 4 года назад

@nandy9285 4 года назад

@@GuerrierJulius sort of. Like what those who commented after you said, muting is very important with distorted guitar and can't really be practiced without it. Furthermore, one could practice fretting notes too firmly to overcompensate the lack of volume you have when you play without distortion. This can potentially slow down your playing because you're not playing as softly as possible while still holding down the note. But then again distortion covers some mistakes too so I guess practice both ways

@humanmusic6409 3 года назад

Isaac Baldeón G. Yes, but when you add distortion you may get an ear piercing ringing sound if you don’t mute all the strings correctly. Not just palm muting, either. Just regular old muting to make sure only the notes you want to play make a sound or for a rest. Clean tones are much more forgiving in that regard.

@@valter28 I think the first actual distortion/fuzz pedal to be introduced was the Fuzz-Tone from 1962. However, in the 50's guitar players would seek out for rancid sounds for their guitars, and thus, they would for example crank up the volume on their amplifiers in order to create gritty overdrive. Some would even slash their speaker cones with razorblades.

The one thing about playing clean, is its incredibly unforgiving. Distortion gives you so much wiggle room. But clean kinds kills it for palm mutes and harmonics.

@sigiligus Год назад

Boomer tier take. The literal physics of what distortion does to the sound is compresses the signal to almost no dynamic range. Therefore, the scientifically irrefutable reality is that mistakes are louder with distortion. The only thing more difficult about playing clean is making sure your ability to consistently pick with the same attack to generate the same volume. If you think that counts as “making mistakes easier to hear” then you are simply a poor player.

I love how the first few sounded country when the two genres are polar opposites. Anyone claiming you can’t play a specific type of music without a Tele, Strat, LP, or whatever should listen to this. Maybe one of the tracks sounded like a “rock” tune, and it had more of a Sublime sound to it to me. This is also a great video for people just learning to play an electric guitar and they’re wanting to achieve the sound of their favorite band but can’t figure out why it doesn’t sound right to them. You’re gonna want more than a guitar and an amp. I love my Fender Mustang, but even modeling amps can only do so much on their own.

@Gus-n9u 2 года назад

At start, yes. A large number of Metal (loosest definition) Guitarist, from Sabbath to Mastadon come from more classical roots, and the added distortion is how they rebelled through their music, whilst keeping the similar cord progressions they learned as wee lads and ladies in the music classes mommy wanted them to take. I would say the greater skill is not the learned styles of long practiced materials, but instead the ability to morph their classical guitar lessons and fuse them with newer techniques and technologies. The application of the knowledge is what makes fucking bangers!
