yeah, there are plenty of people resigned to using effects because they're 'supposed' to. |

I tend to think most of his claims are a load of sh*t, but I still dig what he does with his effects and the sounds he gets. He's easily my favorite player.

Effects are important for the psychological factor-if your tone is s**t,you will not be motivated to play.All the effects in the world will not mask bad playing.But to each his own,as long as it makes you happy who cares.

Adding effects to a foundation that is dodgy in the first place is only gonna make matters worse. It's like having a crappy old car and then giving it this amazing metallic purple moondustglow paint job. Ok, you can see the paint but the car's still crap underneath and really it's just a waste of good paint...

Many are saying you can really hide knowing how to play with effects. I beg to differ. Someone who sucks clean is 99.9 percent of the time going to suck with reverb/gain/delay/flange etc on.

^agreed. i often wonder how much actual experience most people making these claims have with using multiple pedals. last time i tried, if i screwed up going through a delay, i heard my mistake, over, and over, it didn't somehow get fixed before the repeats.
or do i just need a better delay? |
