[2009korte]

awesome

[100roberthenry]

cool stuff man, great riffin too.... i'm working on a 6 string ebow at the moment...i'd sure like to see that stripped ebow circuit up close....got any pics of it when you stripped it?...

[tofmelon]

@100roberthenry 6 will give u too much magnetic interference.For 1 I had to stick a 7mm metal shield to the single coil from BL.Ebow is covered with epoxy.Need to broke that down.There is nothing to change on board just fix the on/off switch somewhere and the battery power.Led is circuit build.Sorry got no photo.

[100roberthenry]

@tofmelon thanks for the reply man......i'll try some stuff out.... :P

[xylophonografi]

Kick ass, dude! :D

Great playing!

[PilferMusic]

shit that rocks

[stereowaltz61]

Why would you do this? You can do the same with delay and a little sustain to back up your distortion...*sigh

[tofmelon]

@stereowaltz61

My dear friend a EBOY is a sustainer system that vibrate your string endless.Listen to the solo at the time when i flip the switch and hear what happens there!It does not matter if you engage with a distortion or delay or phaser the Ebow just vibrate the string.

[MrLabelChannel]

@tofmelon EBOY FTW!!^^

[jimmah01]

@stereowaltz61 Because it creates a completely different effect, that's why.

[aapachtigbeest]

cool playing ! Maybe a ebow on al strings ! :D

[DeadWhiteButterflies]

OMG I 've always wondered about it would be possible to actually have an E-Bow build into the guitar, and now here it is! You're a legend for doing this!

[zeroidking]

great guitar playing. I would love to had been at that gig man. true rock.

[micahformayor]

Or you could have bought a Fernandez guitar with the sustainer pickup and been able to sustain any string. They are awesome.

[speck444]

great man there still is hope

[Unknownbmxr]

he looks like the guy from king crimson

[Texstorm2442]

Can really here the ebow at 1:58 :P

[Texstorm2442]

Sweet, I love the sustain from the ebow on the G string thats awesome!

[artestra]

why did you not show this cool song from the beginning?

[tofmelon]

@artestra

yes you right i should and i will do it...soon

[miriyaa]

your techinique is good, the bow isn't the reason of that sound...... kids have to learn that instead of "tunning" their guitars or buying ebows!!

[Laryodienhizer]

Woah! You really have that thing jacked out! Sounded great, but Im still not entirely sure what exactly you did to the guitar besides the addition of the ebow, but I didnt even see you play it, was it inside that guitar? If it was, that guitar belongs in a crazy si-fi movie...

[gibblsworthiscool]

this is awesome! very good idea.

[ZomgOwnted]

Damn, maybe one day I can be this good..

[jaesungyoun]

I fucking love your guitar man! Great Mod.

[tofmelon]

Ahhh yesss jaesungyoun that isa lot of try and try till i got it right...ground noise...from power and shielded problem inside the guitar...all good now.Chris Maerten Brussels

[haterbait]

Great Song!

[smartti1970]

What can I say more.. pure jewl stuff..

I have the usual boring question great musicians get asked a billion times: what kind of fingers do you have and brain to action them?..

... heu i mean what pickup amp pedals do you use? ;-) ... from old smartti1970 still hooked on gear

[mrKAZ85]

jam jam jam

[tofmelon]

jam with rules to be more precise.Thanks.Chris Martin.Brusels

[chaffel3]

Sounds like he's using delay, but doesn't seem to be (amazing chops? I think so!)

[tofmelon]

I do use delay from time to time and there is no amazing chops and anyone can play like me that is make it so easy for all.thanks .chris Martin.brussels

[JAMESveeder]

Hah, that is SO cool.

Did you just carve out your guitar's body and place the raw Ebow in there, or what?

[tofmelon]

Yes exactly that..nacked ebow under the G string.Work just great as you see..

[BLACKSUNszekelyLori]

sorry... what are you guys talking about? What's that ebow? I'm not english... pls

[tofmelon]

Ebow is a kind os pickup that induce a vibration to the string.Inside there is a driver and a normal pickup.I dismantle the ebow that is sealed in epoxy and fixed it static under my G string.

[endu87]

[tofmelon]

Spaciba Thank you Gracias Chris/Brussels/Belgium

[hyperzippoguy]

[airmiami]

No - it's a rotating diminished Augmented F chord, with minor values at the root note of A.
