Ah sweet thanks very much, really helpful, great site too

yeah that sounds alot better thanks :) thats just repeated until the end then yeah? i checked tabs for the studio version but the good ones flip around on all these different strings so i don't think its for use with an ebow, studio version sounds pretty similar to the live version but are there any major differences? also im having alot of trouble finding tabs for the ebow, they all seem to be adapted to normal play, for songs such as swallowed in the sea, see you soon and spies any idea where there might be tabs for them or maybe how jonny plays them? i wish i wasn't as tone deaf as i am :P

sorry to wake up an old thread but, my ebow arrived from the US today :D i've been mucking around with it for a while and can use it reasonably on a single string. i was wondering how jonny plays amsterdam, i know from the dvd he's on the D string and im pretty sure he starts off on the 7th fret, then moves up to the 8th, then 12th, 10th and repeats, but i feel like there should be more to it and it doesn't sound quite right to me. also im not sure but is he using the harmonic setting? so how do you guys play this?

From the site: Groups such as U2, Blondie, Elton John, Van Halen, Phil Collins, Queen, REO Speedwagon, David Bowie and Blue Oyster Cult, just to name a few, have thrilled their listeners with the sounds of the EBow. Buddy Emmons uses his on steel guitar. Chris Proctor EBows his acoustic guitar. Windham Hill's Michael Manring has even figured out how to use one on bass guitar! The applications for the EBow are diverse. i think ill have to wait until after exams to get one, i think i might get a bit obsessive with it's use, an extremely interesting device i wish they played amsterdam on this tour, i kept on expecting it at their sydney show, i was pretty devostated when they didn't play it.

ah brilliant thanks very much for the reply, i love the sounds he can get with it. im getting me an ebow and slide bar :D and that is pretty weird 3 brilliant songs starting with s using the same device...weird but good

Hiya, during the build up and chris being joined by the rest of the band, i noticed jonny is using some sort of block to create that feed back/resonance noise. Im just wondering what it is, is it a magnet? Can you buy them at music stores?

This was the most amazing, incredible concert i have ever been to.
