What are some of your guys' go-to methods when it comes to producing Shoegaze Guitar? Is it a particular guitar? Effects Pedal(s)? Guitar chords? Or all the above?
Delay and reverb before fuzz or any type of overdrive, and have a chorus after a big muff to make it even more crispy.
Hell yeah, Samuel. Love it!
big muff into od1 into holy grail and dd3 ect
Gca bigsby pedal into light pedal into plasma pedal is my vibe at the moment
@thomaswaddington8582 Ahh that sounds sweet. I want to get a holy grail. The Cosmosis can be a bit much and a little complicated.
would love a video on open tunings and forming chords/chord progressions. cheers man love ya vids!
Ah that would be a good one to do a video on! I’ll consider it. Thanks for the support!
Good lord that fuzz is just gnarly. Awesome stuff, these are some of the best tutorials around. Genres I dig instead of just youtube blues.
It is! I love this fuzz pedal. Thank you for the support, Andrew!
I just barely discovered shoegaze this year and you’ve been a HUGE help to being able to make my own tracks ❤️🔥
Yo, that’s awesome! Thanks for the support! Glad to be of service. Stay tuned, I’ll be posting a whole lot more Shoegaze stuff here on the channel🙏🏻💪🏻
This is one of the best how to shoegaze videos on CZcams, would love to see a part two!
Thank you so much, Johannes! That means a lot. Yes, there’s so much to go over that there has to be a part 2!
That sound is just 🔥
Thanks for the support, Brotha!🙏🏻
really nice, man. It hit me when the fuzz came in
Thank you! 🙏🏻
i love your videos, ive learnt so much from you
Glad I can help! Thank you so much for your support, Jesse!
@@bananalabs i used a couple chords from one of your older videos in my music GCSE composition, and it got me an A, so thanks to you i am able to go to college to study music :D
That’s amazing!!! I’m happy for you, Man! 🙌🏻
such a well made video, thats a sick chord progression too - love the shoegaze content
Thank you, Jay! I appreciate your support🙏🏻
@@bananalabsthat fesley is sick, ive heard a lot of great things about them. what are your thoughts about it? - did you have to make a lot of adjustments?
Yeah, man they’re legit! For the price and what you get, I say it’s worth it. Not only do they look nice but they feel really nice. And you don’t really have to do much. Just a little setup to your liking as far as action and neck adjustment. Also, this one with the whammy bar stays in tune pretty nicely! I was surprised
Great video man. Just invested in my first audio interface. Got myself guitar rig 7 aswell and for the very first time today i set everything up and started playing with my new toys. Now I'm currently in research mode trying to figure out how to get the tone we all love so much. I'm just curious about the order of things. From what I've researched, many folks say to put fuzz/distortion as the last effect on the chain. Reverb and delay before distortion, completely going against the norms. What do you think? I've tried it, and it sounds gnarly, but it definitely loses a lot of clarity. Im thinking of playing with the gain on the amp to introduce some "pre-distortion" and then maybe put a fuzz as the very last effect on the chain but turn the mix amount super low, as to create the wall of sound but not get too crunchy. So much to think about. It's going to be a fun mission but in my free time I'm going to create custom presets and create a whole library of sounds. I'm so excited. Great video man. I've been watching you so much recently, you're really inspiring
First and excited
Haha That was fast
I think some of the the stuff I make is a little bit shoegaze and for me its the timeline along with the jhs moonshine - that pedal has become part of my sound.
Hell yeah, that’s awesome!
Tone / Effect Pedal guide ?
I'm really struggling with getting a nice fuzz tone, it gets really harsh and not creamy, but I'm doing it all in the box with amp and pedal simulators. Do you use clean amp after fuzz?
Are you using plugins for fuzz and amp effects? Or playing out of an actual amp and using a fuzz pedal. It could be a few reasons why you’re not getting much clarity and the tones you want
Without distortion
gotta get you a jazz master bruh
Bro, I know, I need one! I’ve been wanting to get one for a while.
Which version of Hot Rod Deluxe are you using my man?
Hot Rod Deluxe IV 40w 1x12
@@bananalabs thank you brother. I’m a big fan of yours! Always love and appreciate your videos and effort.
Also, one last question. What mic are you using for the amp?
Thank you so much for your support! I use the Sennheiser e609 for my guitar amp
@@bananalabs thanks bro!

You ditched your glasses...
Haha I did 😬
Shoegaze is the name of a scene that was inspired by 80s post punk, art rock, and twee garage bands. It's not really a genre, and even if it was, its sound can't be pinned down to a specific technique or idea. MBV, Slowdive, Ride etc... none of those bands recorded their guitars the same way. Also none of those band recorded their guitars in the way you demonstrate. The biggest issue is the whole idea that to sound like shoegaze you play a fuzz guitar into a huge reverb. no one did this back then, and those who do it today only make muddy, badly mixed youtube tutorials. listen to loveless. its DRY. There's barely any reverb at all on the album. Slowdive did not use reverb in that way. they created space with clean delay lines with long feedback times. There are interesting techniques and gear and studio tricks those bands used that would be appropriate for an informative youtube video. Unfortunately this video is more "how to create a nightmare-to-mix guitar tone that doesn't really have anything to do with shoegaze".
actually what has come out of the last few years, is a more accessible way to recreate those sounds of those early shoegaze bands, not everyone has kevin shield's equipment and talent to re-create the sounds of mbv and a lot of cool music has come out of the modern "dream pop" "alternative" "shoegaze" whatever you want to call it, genre names are used to describe a sound of music - and nowadays people are calling fuzz into a reverb, shoegaze and you know what i start to think of that now when i hear the term "shoegaze" because there is more music out there that has that sound, than the music in the late 80s, early 90s, making ur argument about the video being titled incorrectly invalid, when read that this was a shoegaze guide video - that was the tone i expected. there is no need to gate keep the term shoegaze for whatever odd reason you want to.
Cool story, Bro.
@@jayp7552 "way to recreate those sounds of those early shoegaze bands" and all im saying is this video does not accomplish that. correcting someone is not gatekeeping. there are ways to recreate those tones without kevin shield's equipment or obsessiveness. Bands today do not use this method either because its terribly hard to mix properly. My point is only this: make music however you think sounds good, but people who are unfamiliar with the genre copying this sound will find it difficult to translate this into sounding like the other mentioned bands. If they like this sound they can call it shoegaze too. Like i said, all those "shoegaze" bands sounded different from each other anyway, but this doesn't sound like those bands.
@@ShakyVertexagree to disagree - his tone later in the video sounds like the verse in soon by mbv
@@jayp7552 that's an interesting example to choose because he's not using a long droney reverb in that example. He's using the spx90 early reflections algorithm. the same effect is being used on the drums in the intro part of the song before the guitar starts. the early reflections preset is a delay with an inverted decay that starts quiet and gets louder as it repeats. that's how he manages to obscure the attack from his picking hand without the sound dragging behind muddying up the mix. so yeah i disagree strongly, it both does not sound similar to me and we know the technique used wasn't anything like that.
