mx guitar tab

[coldspot]

Hey guys! I just got hold of the MX guitar tab edition. Can someone please explain what this means because i have no idea :stunned:

 

let ring...

w/chorus+reverb

 

 

This is from pg 6, the song is mylo xyloto. I have a delay pedal but that's it.

 

thank you :)

Let ring: Try to let the notes ring out as long as possible, i.e. don't mute the strings.

 

Chorus and reverb are effects that many amps have (you can also get chorus and reverb pedals). See

What amp do you have? On my Roland Cube 30 there are two knobs for these settings, see for instance http://cachepe.zzounds.com/media/quality,85/CUBE-30Top-6b730bc1ae0f94cd9b055792f9e12327.jpg

Thanks Puzzling for that info :) my amp is a Nux mighty 30X

 

Do you know why you can get seperate pedals when the effects are already on the amp?

Your amp looks nice, and it does have the effects used in Mylo Xyloto. So go on and play it like Jonny does!

 

I'm just a hobby player with little knowledge of pedals (in fact I only have a switch pedal to change between clean and distortion :P), but from what I've read, pedals can give you more tweaking options and perhaps better quality effects. And you'll be able to change the effects with your feet instead of your hands, which can be quite handy (footy :smug:) mid-song. Here's a thread I found where more experienced players discuss pedal vs amp distortion:

Hey thanks for that info. I tried it on my amp but the effects aren't very noticable. Perhaps that's why people use pedals :dozey:

 

Thanks ;)
