    Pretty standart. You will see that the further the bend wheel is set to go, the harder it is to stop in the note which you want to stop at.


    Oh yes, I actually saw one of them (used, obviously) in a music store once. I didn't know it at the time, but I just looked it up and there it was.

    Okay, thanks. I was figuring that, when you go too far, I would imagine it's out of your hand's "comfort zone," if you will.
  2. Alright guys, not posted on here in a little while.

    Not sure if this is the right topic for original stuff, but it's the only musician related thread I could find....

    Anyway, basically I've just kicked a new band off with a friend and as it's early days I'm just trying to spread the music and get a bit of feedback really. We've written a fair old lot of songs - about 16 or so - so far and recorded 6. Still trying to get a full band line up together but we've been keeping busy like that currently.

    We're called Facing South and there's some tracks up at www.myspace.com/facingsouthuk

    and a free download at www.facingsouth.net

    Any feedback at all (positive or negative) would be great. Cheers guys

    A complete cover with the acoustic begginging and the electric solos etc?


  5. yeh pretty much how they play it live at milan in 2005, mainly after help with effects and settings


  6. Baically just a long delay (about 430-440ms) with modulation, (usually edge's modulation settings imo are very fast and very low depth).
    Then you need a light overdrive for the main parts,
    a compressor if you want to get very technical and spot on, but a very transparent compressor sound,
    then a shimmer type sound, like from a verbzilla or eclipse.
    For the solo sounds you need a tube screamer on high settings

    That should be about it, as far as exact settings go, just feel it out. Tweak, tweak, and tweak, like other Edge guitarists have, and you'll find the right sound

    cheers, i will give this a go tomorrow, much too late for guitar noises now.
  9. Yes, U2station has a great database of chords and tabs, I discovered it only some months ago, around september or so... Of course I still write my own tabs and try to play everything by ear, but tabs and chords are helpful when you get stuck

    Useful resource for sure. Keeping in mind that they are not professionally done. Some are blatantly wrong. But they are a good starting place.
  11. It's amazing how no one has been able to write a decent tab for Seconds, Like A Song and Drowning Man in all this years
