  • Quick / Rough guitar cover for an old favorite... it's been over 20 years now? Wow, I feel so old.
    Guitar: Fender American Standard Strat. Set to 2nd Position on pickups (Bridge+Middle), tone set to ~6/10 to cut down on high piercing frequencies which I really don't like on Strats or Teles... warms up the tone nicely.
    Using a blue Herdim pick, which is key to obtaining the Edge's chimey raspy sound.
    Digitech RP250: Delay set to 350ms, ~ 8 repeats, ~85% volume on the repeats. Some reverb, and very slight vibrato, as well as compressor.

    I’m not a huge U2 fan but there’s no denying this is a Chune. The way it builds, and holds, then let’s go, back again, it creates a great sense of expectation from the start and seems to deliver it endlessly for the entire song. It is indeed a classic.

    Great job. To my ears you've delivered over 90% of the Edges sound on less than 1% of the Edges equipment budget. Amazing 👍.

      😂 when I read Digitech RP250 on the description, The image of the famous video where his tech show his rig came to mu mind… he nailed the tone with just one multi effect. Genius

      I'm a shitty guitarist. I said once to a friend (who's a good guitarist) that I'm not a guitarist, just "a guy who owns a guitar". My friend wasn't having that shit: "you own a guitar, and you try to play it. You're a guitarist." Good advice.

    Hi, it's not a true Marshall, it is actually a kit tube amp I built. The sound you hear from my guitar is not going through the amp anyway, it is straight digital recording from the Digitech processor. Thanks for your comments!

      @@ThatOtherRaccoon but the effect IS the chirp and so why not use a pick you can play in the traditional way and still get that chirpiness from the notes? I’m not talking about “grit”, check those picks I commented on; they’re sharp tipped.

      vespworks Dude, I must have spent a good thousand dollars trying to recreate that sound. Its almost a "clucking". I had the gear, the right settings, but nothing I did sounded right at all.
      Did some research and found out about those picks, and I was curious, so I kinda slashed up a thick guitar pick to give it those ridges. Soon as it hit a string I was floored. Are you in america? Do you know where to get those over here?
