Couldn't find patch settings for this song, so I made one. This video was shot with my phone; sorry for the bad audio quality of the guitar.

This was my attempt to re-create the guitar riff for 'How Soon Is Now' with a Zoom A2 guitar pedal effect processor, and a Danelectro BLT Slap-Echo pedal. The following set of parameters were used in this Zoom A2:

Patch = 31
1. Mod/Efx = 1.0
2. Delay = 40
3. Level = d4

The Danelectro pedal dials were set mix at 3/4 and repeat at 1/2, and this pedal was inline between the guitar and the Zoom (to add more sauce & slightly out of phase).

This setup was played with a Gretsch 3155 Hollowbody guitar and a Johnson 15 amp, set to overdrive. (song transposed into Key of D, with Capo4 to put into original F# key).

I checked against playing along with Marr's version & the sound (off camera) was pretty close. Good luck!

  • @1411j You can get the sound using just the A2, tremello effect+echo/reverb/delay.
