When only a good riff will do

 

@Retired and @Peaceful Gardener the promised video.

I'm a big fan of rock music and currently a band called Greta Van Fleet. The video below is of guitarist Jake Kiszka making use of different sounds with pogs etc.

 

Hi,

Thanks so much Sheal; I've just watched Jakes pedals and this is the way I'm heading but mostly on my violins. I've very recently bought a POG2 which can turn my violin into an organ and everything inbetween but I'm a novice with lots to learn; I also have an Enzo Merris synth. both these pedals are addictive. Winter is going to be interesting when I can spend more time setting up and using all my gear in the studio. I've got some of my gear in the front room at the moment for convenience allowing short practices between working on the bungalow and in the gardens.

Friends are visiting next Friday so I've hooked up the pog to my Yamaha YEV104 electric violin and the Enzo up to Bron's Fender Stratocaster electric guitar; both are great fun to play with and I'm sure my friends will be interested; they sound better through the headphones. Life can be so much fun.

Some great songs on here already.

There are lots of the following videos on YouTube; this one the song kicks in at 1:10.



Kind regards, Col.

 

You're welcome @Retired. I just thought you might like to see what could be achieved with different technology that's now available. Some would argue it's interfering with the natural sound of instruments, but it does make for some interesting sounds, particularly in an arena environment. Enjoy your music.
