Recently, my friend and I have been talking about starting a psychedelic band just for fun (why not eh), he is an experienced bass guitar player and I'm a not-so-experienced guitarist. Now I listen to a lot of psychedelic music, but I have no idea how to replicate any of the sounds I hear in these songs. I suppose I could purchase a sitar, but what sort of stuff would I need to create some really trippy sounds? You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

You want psychedelic rock, pop, electronic music, etc. Any psychedelic style it comes with some particular effects. If you can post a link with a song with a similar style that you want to play because in this moment I think at some psychedelic electronic music To find effect it's not a hard thing. The part that I personally consider not easy it's to make all the instruments to sound good together. Because as an example over an ambient guitar sound not any bass tone will fits very well.

Right off the top: Reverb, Delay, Phaser or Flanger, Volume pedal, Wah wah, Tremelo. You can get a lot of what you'll probably need in a multi-pedal. Check out the fx co.

I will try to explain you what I meant. How I split those effects for a particular style. Psychedelic rock: I will use wah wah, fuzz and probably electro harmonix. Then I will think to have in the band a keyboard with a strong presence and the songs to be with instrumental solos. Psychedelic pop: For this style maybe a sound of sitar, fuzz.....and I still think for more Psychedelic electronic music: For this definitely I have so many options: delay, reverb, chorus, phaser, flanger, tremolo. But this is only the way how I see the things and how I would use these effects for each psychedelic style to fit with my taste. Of course, for any kind of style will be more options but to be able to choose more I must know if my band will be with vocal or just instrumental.

Ken, I hope you will understand how I hear all these in my head Hi Monica definitely agree with the use of EHX pedals to create leftfield soundscapes. My favourite is the Riddle envelope filter with Q. that combined with the reverse echo facility on the MemoryMan is simply AWESOME! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
