@yellowfellow actually lately there have been a few Japanese players using electric shamisen (same model) some vids posted on pfman7 feature a few examples. The main difference is that I have never heard them crank the distortion or really experiment with any kind of effects at all except for like delay etc.
@TheKaprys the point is that he does not play guitar, what if I do not play guitar nor I want tolearn, but I want to use distortion? what is the problem with that? distotion is not an instrument is an effect an can be used with whatever other string instrument. I play violin with distortion I don't like to play guitar but I love distortion (not guitar) sound so I play it on my violin and sounds cool. Also the sound is slightly diferent for each instrument althought.
its really good and all, but i like the sound of shamisen when they are not distorted better, the natural sound is more pleasing to me, but you got what you aimed for, its sick.
man what the fuck is wrong with japanese people, they dont even bother to try and use electric shamisens in their music
