Detailed video information below, please read:

DEMONSTRATION: EBow (Electronic Bow)
SETTINGS: Harmonic Mode
ADDITIONAL PEDALS: Digitech Whammy + TC Electronic Nova Delay + Boss RV-5 + Gig Rig Pro 14
AMP: Hiwatt 100 Head
CAB: Mesa Boogie
SONG: Random messing about with the EBow

This is a demonstration of very basic use of the EBow (Electronic Bow) in conjunction with a Lap Steel guitar and metal slide. I use additional effects such as Delay, Reverb and the Whammy pedal.

The TC Electronic ND-1 Nova Delay is set to a standard short delay setting, the RV-5 has a moderate Room reverb dialed in andthe Digitech Whammy Pedal is set to one of the 'Harmony' modes to harmonize the notes I play. The EBow is set to the Harmonic Mode which results in some interesting sounds as it interacts with the harmony circuit of the Whammy pedal.

I am using a GigRig Pro 14 switching system to control my amps and effects. More info on this unit can be found at http://www.thegigrig.com/

cool vid thanks for posting - am considering getting one, partly cos i like the noise, partly cos i am having problems with right hand, so can't pick or fingerpick just now - but I could hold this...! Pls tell, in this vid, are you just playing one string with the ebow, or playing each in turn ?

[craigmcarthur1]

Just one string in this video. I have the whammy pedal acting as an octaver to beef up the sound

[13happyendings]

what is it youre doing with your right hand? sorry im not really familiar with lap steel guitars and this was inspiring

[craigmcarthur1]

Normally your right hand just plays the strings using ur fingers as you would with a normal guitar. In this video I am using an eBow with my right hand

Dude, that sounds fucking cool!! I could totally see myself using a sound like this for some kind of ambient, spacey sort of intro or interlude part of a song. Very nice!
