Welcome Alex!
You can get most basic tones from any modelling device such as PODs, Pandora, Toneport or any MultiFX unit like BOSS, Zoom, etc. If you already own an amp with built in effects just try to add drive/gain to suit the lessons sound & the basic effects such as delay, reverb & maybe chorus. Getting the exact same sound can be tricky, as it depends on the guitar, amp & effects each instructor uses. And last but not least, the fingers! For that tapping lesson a fair amount of distortion (gain) will be needed to achieve the sound of the lesson, and also pay attention to the pull-off movement of the fingers to make it "sound". -------------------- Guitars:

Hi and welcome!
I don't know your amp and what it can do, but if you want something like a Line6 POD for practicing it has good sound. Later in June Behringer is releasing their VAMP3, which is a sort of a POD copy but much cheaper and surely a little less in sound quality. But I guess it'll be ok. There are not amps but more for connecting to your computer or playing with headphones. If you want to have an amp I think people can reccomend you tons of good ones with the sounds your looking for (i.e amps with amp modeling and built in effects) from Vox, Peavey, Lines and possibly more. -------------------- My bands homepage

There are great suggestions here about how to reach your desired tone, I can't put anything extra to them really. So I would only like to welcome you on GMC!

Welcome aboard man!
If you want to make a tone similar to the one in the lesson, you gotta do some tweaking, and know your amp inside out. This means you should have a good understanding how different modelings & effects behave and alter the sound when you turn them on. For starters try to make a preset that has similar gear that it is used in the lesson, and try to play with EQ settings in order to achieve similar sound coloration. This will get you started nicely. If settings are not marked in the lesson, you can ask the instructor to help you with the settings, and tell you what he used for the lesson. Please tell us what you did, and what we can do to help you further. cheers mate

Welcome to GMC Alex
I don't use an amp. I play through my EMU 0404 soundcard and listening through my computer speakers (studio monitors Edirol MA-15D). The recording software I use is Sonar 7 producer edition. There I load a plugin called "Amplitube 2" - you need to buy this separately. That's all I need to get the sound I want and record stuff. I hope this was helpful. -------------------- Check out my <a href="https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/instructor/Emir-Hot" target="_blank">Instructor profile</a>
