Sound Effect Guitar

Sound Effect Guitar

Ever hear a sound that you know is a guitar but you just can’t figure out how it’s done? More often than not, it’s because the guitar’s signal is being processed through an effects pedal. Listed below are the main types of guitar effects as well as some sound samples for each one.

This is the most common guitar effect and has been used frequently on records since the 60’s. Distortion clips the audio waveform and creates a compressed “buzzing” sound. Variations of distortion are fuzz, overdrive and the gain control on an amplifier.

This effect is oftenfound on amplifiers but can also be purchased as a standalone pedal. Reverb simulates the sound of different acoustical spaces, such as a concert hall, auditorium, stadium or even a garage. It can make the guitar sound “spacious”. Some common reverb types include hall, chamber, room, plate and spring.

Delay/Echo repeats the sound being played one or more times. Some different types of delay are tape echo, analog delay and slapback.

This is the most complex and varied type of effect. In general, modulation either takes the direct guitar signal and constantly varies it’s pitch or volume OR it does the same thing to a duplicate signal that is then blended with the original (unchanged) guitar signal. Examples of modulation include chorus, flanger, phaser, rotary, vibrato and tremolo.

A pitch shifter changes the pitch of the note(s) being played. A harmonizer adds one or more notes of a different pitch that are combined with the original. The added notesare often based on the musical scale. Common harmonizer intervals are octave, 3rd, 4th and 5th.

This could be considered modulation but it’s worth its own category in the guitar universe. This effect varies the tone, primarily the mid/treble frequencies. Just say “wah-wah” over and over and you’ll get an idea of what it sounds like. The effect can be manipulated by the player using a pedal that rocks up and down (‘wah pedal’) or by picking dynamics (‘auto-wah’).One day i searched on Youtube for Herman Li guitar effects and wondered if i could do some of the sounds without a whammy bar. I finally figured out a few of them (and another one not in Herman's video). So, i now tell you how to do these cool effects!

In the Herman Li video, Herman unscrewed his whammy bar, palm muted all his strings, and lightly dragged the bar over his middle pickup. i dont have a whammy bar or a middle pickup so i found an allen wrench (most metal objects will work; i could do it with the plug from a pair of headphones) and drag it over where your middle pickup is or where it would be. for the ghost sound, lay bar shaped metal object over strings and drag across while wiggling. i couldnt find my allen wrench in the pic so i just picked up my cable.

I figured out how to do this but the inspiration (yet again) came from the Herman Li video. use an allen wrench or something similar and press down on the 6th/low e string just a bit after the last fret(i say that because some guitars have more or less frets than others) and press down and wiggle while slowly dragging towards pickup(s).vroom vroom! not as far as in the pic, i just showed what you need to do in the pics.

I found this at random. some guy fretted the 13th fret on the 5th/a string and 10th fret on the 4th/d string , strummed both and pressed his whammy bar down all the way. i do it by bending the 2 strings away from each other. this way, it doesnt do it immediately, but you'll get the sound. bend really far apart.

Done by fretting note, lifting whammy bar all the way, strumming and slowly letting the whammy bar down. or, dont pull up on whammy bar, and push it down slowly after strumming. coolest notes around 3-5th frets. or, for people with no whammy bar, bend string up, strum, let down slowly.
