Pink Floyd/David Gilmour - Sustain tutorial

In this clip I'm showing various techniques for enhancing the sustain. I'm using a Fender CIJ 50s Stratocaster with Fender CS69 neck and mid pickups and a Duncan SSL5 bridge pickup into a Laney Cub12 15w stack.

Thanks! I'm using Tortex 1.0. David's using teardrop 1.0 picks... usually Fender, Guild, Gibson.

Hey there Bjorn i forgot to mention if you've never heard or checked out the JAM line of pedals do so IMMEDIATELY. They are phenomonal to say the least. I know you would fall in love with them man.

@clicheeurosk8er

I haven't really thought about that. Electro Harmonix changed most of their older pedals sometime in the late 90s and fitted them with true bypass switching which might make them slightly more transparent than the hardwire bypass switch. I don't know if the powersupply effects the tone. In any case you need to use the correct voltage and be careful with cheaper multi adaptors. They alter the tone for sure.
