3 AnswersSingles & Dating6 years agoWhere there any guitar effect pedals/units even invented in the 1950's?
i know most rock blues and country guitarists in the 1950's didn't use pedals, because most of them used fender amps that had reverb bright(Chuck Berry) and tremolo(Bo Diddley, Duane eddy) which were the two most popular effect available at the time. But where the two other effects around in the 1950's like slap back delay(Chet Atkins, Scotty Moore) and vibrato in pedals? Or did they have to find and amp with it built in. Sometimes it was studio eeffcts but Scotty and Chet used slap back delay live where there any effect pedals or units around not necessarily used but even made?

9 AnswersRock and Pop6 years agoi need pre-Hendrix Eric Clapton guitar work. Songs before he was exposed to Jimi Hendrix in 1966?
I want to see how heavy Jimi Hendrix's influence on Eric Clapton was. I want Eric Clapton recordings before Jimi made it big and before Eric was ever exposed to Jimi (the superior player) and don't say "in my opinion Clapton is better". This isn't a matter of opinion. Jimi's songs are way harder to play, and more creative and innovative. Some people like Eric better yes, but he was not better than Hendrix as a guitarist, but he was very close.

1 AnswerMen's Health6 years agoWhy do self taught guitarist usually end up being better sounding?
all the greats were self taught
Jimi Hendrix
Eric Clapton
BB King
Chuck Berry
Jimmy page
Carlos Santana
Scotty Moore
Keith Richards
Bo Diddley
Robert Johnson
And the ones who take professional private lessons end up playing as a backing band for a pop artist or session musician, and usually play basic chords and their solos are horrible. They play with logic and not emotion. Why is it that classically trained guitarist aren't as good as self taught guitarist? Self taughts develop their own distinctive style of playing, and you can tell who it is by hearing them, but classically trained just play a bunch a constant bar chords going with the rhythm and the solos are lame. Now not saying all, but the majority
7 AnswersRock and Pop6 years agoWhy is modern metal so boring and lacking creativity?
I love early metal from the 60's and 70's but new metal is all the same and uses the same riffs, and yes it sounds cool but it is also depressing. Early metal was more of an a cool angry strong feeling and new metal is softer as in emotion. It's sad and boring. ACDC is my favorite type of metal
