Loving the electric guitar lessons – super spicy
Devin, are you playing through an amp or direct into computer? In either scenario, what is your setup? Love the tone
Thanks Scott! Here’s a pic of my pedal board…everything was connected in this order: Telecaster, Wampler Ego Compressor, Source Audio Zio Analog Front End Boost, Boss GE-7 Equalizer, Revv G8 Noise Gate, Strymon Flint Tremelo & Reverb, and finally into a Fender Tweed ’57 Custom Deluxe. I’ll try to do a video on the pedal and amp settings at some point after I do some more fiddling around with all the settings.
Hope everything’s going well!
And forgot to say that I’m just using a Shure SM57 as the mic — works so well for recording electric guitar.
Where’s the chicken gone?

Excellent lesson Devin. Thank you for this lesson. This chicken picking thing is a new term for me up here in Canada for sure. by the way, where has that nice chicken gone to?
