1. ok this is what works for me, and because I love you guys...here ya go!!!

    1. You need a good amp.

    2. Most of these songs require you to use Herdim Picks. I use Jim Dunlop Grey Nylons and turn em backwards. Note: These songs WILL NOT sound write with out these picks...ya you'll "almost get it", but you will nerver be truly satisfied lol None of my videos are using these picks and I will probably replace them.


    Streets: 2 Delays set at 350 (it sounds ok with one, but I discovered today that it really needs the two, Compressor set at Max, Overdrive for second verse, and that should work...NO CHORUS. People totally srew this song up by adding chorus...DO NOT do it.

    Bad: 2 Delays set at 450 and Max Compressor. Clean

    ISHFWILF: One delay does for this at 450. Same with compressor at max. Also, if you have it, get a line 6 reverb pedal and set effect to octo. it is simply the best for the price. capo 1

    Disco: For the riff try clean with a tad bit of drive and for the chorus kick the overdrive into full. For the bridge, switch to clean setting with 350 seconds of delay.

    UTTEOTW: Full Overdrive, 450 delay. Max Compressor...edge is a compressor hoe lol capo 3

    NYD: With a good les paul...you wont need any overdrive, but for most, kick it about 3/4 drive with delay set at 350. Im not sure about compression as I have not tried it yet...

    BTBS: I only play the Rattle and Hum version cuz its easy ...Turn drive all the way up and turn compressor on all the way. For muted strings/wah parts, play with a clean sound...also I belive the overdrive is off in the chorus, otherwise, dont look back lol

    Pride: Same as bad.

    Van Diemans Land: Clean sound with 450 delay. Usually sounds good on a hollow body only.

    I Will Follow: Delay at 250 and turn overdrive about 3/4 way.

    Walk On: Drive with 450 seconds of delay.

    AIWIY: Delay 450, Compression, and for the solo kick it in to Overdrive.

    Well hit me up if you wnat more. Note: this is what works for me. Have fun!!!
