Lachlan, you could have played with the Smashing Pumpkins in Adore times! It sounds amazing

[davidbrucemusicvideo]

thats weird... i put comment up, but it didn't post.

this is great! i play for a living as a looping artist & i'm always getting people asking me what that thing with the little blue light is.

good to see someone who knows how to use it! 5 stars!

i've posted a video of me at a looping clinic i was asked to do at chicago guitar center last week. hope u dig it and hope to hear back from ya, bro.

i gotta pack... i'm leaving for 3 gigs in baton rouge from Ohare tomorrow morning...

[vintageguitar4jc]

so far this is the best ebow video on youtube. all the other vids are just a bunch of dorky guys in their bedrooms trying to use something they dont know how to use.

You give it class.

[CarlosvsGodzilla]

thats delicous

[DDUP101]

shit man you could do such a sick post rock/ambient song with that

just do this for 15 minutes lol

[lachlanhiggs]

don't tempt me... ha

[soundwrks]

That sounded absolutely amazing.

[DarkOsiris92]

omfg man that was beautiful.whats that ebow called?

[effects69]

ok i must get myself one

[mindvibe]

Is your base sound clean or distorted in this video? Hard to tell with the ebow. Great piece by the way, keep at it!

[lachlanhiggs]

it's clean but the ebow tends to make it sound a little distorted..... thanks

[trigg015]

very nice atmosphere you got there. great job!

[alexh889]

hey this sounds amazing. I play in an ambient/indie band so this is right up my ally. but can someone explain to me how he gets that amazing feedback? is it a pedal or what?

[trashlice]

pedals or effects are delay and some reverb but the main ingrediant is the ebow ahh very beautiful

[slickvader310]

u need anthony green to sing something here

[desol89]

yea man like everyone's saying its a STRONG intro to a song, i was itching for a lot more.

itd be amazing if u could write more to this because u got a very addictive bittersweet feel here.

[darzik]

WOW this is great man!

[bounttyhuntter]

holy shit this is fucking good man, you really need to push this stuff forward more. This is a great intro into a song

[twelvemuses]

This is gothic and dark and cool, i like kind ambient electronica feel to this. Very mesmerising.

[bjthepumpkinguy]

sounds like a perfect circle material with a lil' twist smashing pumpkins feel.

[kop0001]

dude.

i find myself coming back to this everytime i come on youtube.

amazing work. =]

[desol89]

this is an awsome sound. ill have to look up this ebow...i dont even know what it is.

[dom1002000]

Hi again, just got my ebow plus delivered yesterday and working on technique. ive been trying to get that smooth sound you have in this video attempting to jam along with it to master the technique, is your g string detuned in this video as ive been playing along and something seems out (im using the ebow in standard mode not harmonic if that makes a difference?) did you find string crossing a pain when you started out on it as im finding it really hard to aprggio strings? cheers -

[dom1002000]

Love the sound, gonna have to buy one, can hear so many song ideas opening just from hearing the sound the ebow produces - how long have u been playing with the e bow - is the technique hard to master?

[lachlanhiggs]

i've had it for at least 2 years now and fell in love with it the first time i heard james iha of the smashing pumpkins using one way back in the day... it's surprisingly easy to use... it's a technique in itself, but if you can already play guitar, you can work out how to use an ebow in no time. not hard at all.. just be mindful that the ebow sounds best on a guitar setting with a lot of bass and minimal treble... cheers and best of luck.

[musicman9907]

That's pretty cool man...would be an awesome intro to a song!!!

[ovalportrait]

thats badass dude

[eharmonix]

this is friggin great

heheh ... i did some experiments with feedback noises myself some days before and some similar stuff like this came out!

[alexh889]

now this is really good stuff

and the tone sounds perfect for what you're playing, and your just using the giga delay and reverb?

[lachlanhiggs]

cheers... yeah, its just the boss giga delay and a boss digital reverb rv-5 with the ebow... the key thing is the guitar i think... it's just an ibanez ax series... a pretty cheap guitar... but for some reason (i think the dull pickups) it's perfect for ebow... i've never heard ebow sound better on any other guitar... no matter how expensive i try.

[kseward]

Maybe a "duh" thing to say here, but have you tried rolling back the tone knob on your other non-Ibanez guitars? That can take away some of the sharp treble edge you might be hearing with those guitars.

No big deal, tho', sounds great just as it is.

[lachlanhiggs]

i know what you mean about reducing the treble but i think it's more to do with being able to control the 'nice sounding area' on a guitar with powerful pickups... i'm sure other guitars can sound just as nice but you have to be extremely careful about not moving the ebow a millimeter. i really recommend you try an ax to see what i'm talking about.. cheers.

[kseward]

I hear what you're saying--and playing. More of a sweet spot. Cool.

[homsniff]

Sounding good man.
