This was recorded yesterday, on my roof in the New Territories of Hong Kong, almost 30C and very humid. Just playing around with the tones ...

  • thumbs up..

    dude I live in HK and I've been trying to buy a E-bow..

    where did u buy yours? .. can't find in Tom Lee..

    is Amazon my only option (the shipping fee is crazy man)..

    cheers.. rock on

  • @desirewithinus Hi - I actually bought it in Hk 12 years ago: top floor of Sogo in Causeway Bay. Haven't been there in a while, though. Good luck!

  • Why doesn't he just a delay and, volume pedal? Putting his volume knob to use, would work just as well too.

  • I think the e-bow has many applications and I guess using the methods you describe similar sounds can be found - but the e-bow produces infinite sustain and you can tease and tweak the sound with your fingers as you play: there is much less interefence between the guitar, amp, player and ultimately your tone. I believe the Fernandes series of guitars have an in built sustainer pup on many of their guitar models that does something very similar. Thanks.

  • what is that in your picking hand? also beautiful guitar and crazy tones.

  • It's an e-bow. You can google it. It's been around for years, generates a magnetic field that sustains the guitar notes for as long as you hold it close to the strings, makes it sound like a violin or cello being 'bowed', hence e-bow ...

  • yep the fernandez sustainer works the same way except this is like a hand held sustainer driver..it just makes your guitar come alive..nicely done, i love the roof thing and the music had a trance-like meditative quality to it, kinda reminded me of listening to a sri chinmoy cassette :) ohhhhhhhhmmmmm!! im in my happy peaceful place now :)

  • Micro Cube FTW!!

  • Ah, the e-bow. I use it for compensating the fact that I can't play guitar to save my life. I love to make long, haunting, theremin-like solos with it.

  • you are so cool. xD
