[Eric Hates Dragonball Z (Intro Theme)]

yooooo rock fukin on, just curious whats do u use for a guitar tone? I can never get good low
pinch harmonic sounds like that.

Burn7 responds:

Thanks dude! For this I think I used a POD HD Desktop edition, they have a few amp sims on there. But I'd EQ the FUCK out of them because raw they sound VERY digital. Typically I'll aim for a more dynamic mid-tone sound before anything else with those older digital amp sims like a Line 6 POD or a Digitech pedal because if you aim for the highrange it always seems to sound somehow even more digital and fake. Though I guess it really depends on the tone you're looking for.

Nowadays I'd HIGHLY recommend using one of Neural DSP's amp sims and just recording a DI. There are so, so many cool things you can do with them. Personally I love the Archetype Nolly plugin but that's because I tend to gravitate toward prog rock/metal tones with a bit more body.

Also, on the pinches: It's unfortunately just about practice. There are like 3 ways to pull of a low pinch and the way I accidentally stumbled upon it is different than most tutorials will give you. Instead of doing anything special with your picking hand or doing open harmonics and bending them afterwards, if you play any note with your index finger while gently resting your pinky with the same string a few frets down you can get a really solid harmonic tone out of it. By striking that harmonic hard and releasing the pinky you can bend the fuck out of it. Also, depending on where your pinky is you can get different harmonic tones out of it. That way you can get a solid harmonic anywhere on the fretboard without worrying about pick dynamics or anything like that.

It doesn't work nearly as well on higher notes though and for those I'd recommend the method where you use a tiny bit of your picking hand's thumb while you strike the note.

Good luck! And thanks for the review!
