This is my first attempt at a video or recording. I know the playing is pretty rough, but I think the tone is decent.

  • what effects are you using. Delay and what more and what are the set to?

  • The PODxt Pro is being used for the Amp sim (Vox AC-30) and the compression effect (Vintage Dyna Comp sim). Then I have an Eventide Eclipse in the FX loop of the PODxt Pro...this is set to the vintage DDL (440ms, 4 repeats, and the modulation set at 4.8Hz with a medium depth...set to taste). Hope that helps!

  • I dont think any of us have been talking about using 2 delays. I am only using one delay in that clip and its set to 440ms! Thanks for confirming the setup though!!

  • Your timings a little off, but otherwise, I actually think your delay settings have sounded the closest to the real thing from all other videos I've seen. What exactly were all the settings on your delay to get'r like this??

  • Thanks for the comment. My timing was definately off towards the end when I played on the high E and B strings...oh well. I recorded this clip with my PODxt Pro and my Eventide Eclipse for the delay. I had the delay set to about 440ms with about 4 repeats, and I had the modulation set for the "sine" wave mixed in about 0.9 on the elipse. I will check all the settings when I get home and post them later. Thanks again.

  • Nice tone! Is it a MIM or a MIA Strat?

  • LIke many other comments, I thought the tone was nice but the timing was off. Bad isn't a difficult tune to play with the left hand but keeping the tempo with the right hand and the dotted eights is everything. If you haven't already, check out U2 Guitar Tutorials. The guy who does that - I think his name is Michael - breaks down the tempo with and without the delay. It really helped me nail the Bad sound. Cheers!

  • dude, its a standard stratocaster........ many guitar players own em.

  • thats a really nice guitar!

  • wow jak dla mnie to rewelacja! :)

  • Hi mate, try it on 450ms thats the edge setting cheers

  • what did you use in terms of delays, other pedals and suff, cause that is a sick tone

  • Wow that IS a great tone! People are being way too critical of your playing, we're just jamming here guys. Wow that's a nice sound!

  • whats wrong with you I dont see you doing it better?

  • Not a bad job mate. Timing out a touch but the general delay structure is pretty good. Nice.
