Effects & Signal Chain

Notes

Studio recording, 2019. The solo is a blend of the direct acoustic signal and a distorted signal from the Thompson dreadnought run through a Chase Bliss Brothers pedal into a Fender Deluxe Reverb. No electric guitar was used; all effects are applied to the acoustic. Pedalboard and amp chain confirmed for this specific solo section.

Difficulty

This solo requires advanced flatpicking technique, control of dynamics and feedback on an acoustic guitar with heavy effects, and expressive phrasing through complex modulation and drive. The technical and expressive demands are very high.
