I think there needs to be a thread for musicians to discuss music and instrument related stuff... If one of the moderators could consider it for a section it would be great... Anyhoons in the meantime i have a question...
Does any guitarist out there know how to get this sound Lou Reed is getting on his telecaster during this cover of Blind Lemon Jefferson's "See That My Grave is Kept Clean"...
I swear Rogers or Christopher used a similar sound somewhere on the Soup album but i can recall where at the moment...?

....Sounds similar to the sounds used in Sleepyhouse... But, not the same effect. Hmmmm..
Sounds like a swell effect to me... Here is an example. This dude added delay to it though. Try to block out the delay... sounds similar.

Like I said.. It just sounds like a "Swell" effect. Not "swell" as in, "nifty"... The actual effect called "Swell".

Most of the Swell FXs pedals I have seen look like WAH or Volume control pedals.

I don't know what it is....sounds like a volume pedal to me....pretty cool. Sleepyhouse is an ebow....
You can do volume swells with your pinky. just turn the volume knob on the guitar all the way down, pick a string and then slowly turn it up. Works well on a strat because of where the volume knob is in relation to your hand. I learned that from Eddie Van Halen when I was still begging my mama for titty milk.

Rogers, can you remember what you did for the similar effect on the early demo Rebirth, or was it the same effect used on Sleepyhouse?
