Tone Profile

A lo-fi, gritty slide guitar sound with a slightly detuned and heavily compressed character. It blends a raw, almost broken quality with a distinct sense of melody.

Recording Notes

• The lead guitar sound was likely achieved through a combination of live performance and studio experimentation. The use of a slide and slightly detuned strings contributes to the unique character.
• Distortion was added with the Pro Co Rat.
• The Roland Space Echo was used for tape delay.
• The Silvertone 1484 likely imparts its characteristic warm, slightly overdriven tone.

Recreation Tips

• Start with a guitar equipped with a slide.
• Slightly detune the strings to achieve a slightly out-of-tune sound.
• Use a Pro Co RAT to add distortion.
• Use a tape delay plugin or pedal to emulate the Roland Space Echo.
• Experiment with amp settings on a Silvertone 1484 or similar amp to dial in the warmth and grit.
• Consider double-tracking the part to enhance the thickness and slightly detuned feel.
