How to Get Solo type of tone

[crude ice]

Anyone know how to make a tone like this ?? I'm on a spark 2 amp and a hss strat . I can't even get close on making tones like this 😭😭😭 can someone make the tone from the spark app (if u have) and share to me or just tell me what settings I can do 🙏🙏

[shrewd ingot]

basic high gain amp with a boost and some reverb and/or delay

try dialing back the mids and bass a bit ... don't push the trble too much

[shrewd ingot]

Boost is some sort of tube screamer without any drive and the level cranked by the way

[crude ice]

Which high gain amp?

Does this work for the drive

[crude ice]

I'm not rlly that experienced my bad

[shrewd ingot]

exactly that... tone to taste

[shrewd ingot]

do the SLO100 clone ... or a 5150 ... JCM800 ... something along that line

[crude ice]

For the knobs how much for them ?

[crude ice]

Wait

Ima try

[crude ice]

I can't find the 5150 and jcm800??

There's only a slo100

I have no idea for the eq and gain

[shrewd ingot]

try : gain at noon, bass at 11 , mids at 10, treble at 1

[shrewd ingot]

it MUST have a JCM800 type amp ... some Marshal at least

[crude ice]

I searched and it said the be101

I tried it

And it doesn't rlly sound that alike

[shrewd ingot]

needs some delay

[crude ice]

Which delay?

[shrewd ingot]

the vintage would work

[crude ice]

How much for the settings?

[shrewd ingot]

to taste

[crude ice]

Oh and also which pick up should I use? It's hss

[shrewd ingot]

experiment a little ... play a bit ... dial something back ... try again

[shrewd ingot]

doesn;t really matter ... some like the neck because it sounds fuller ... bridge will have more bite

as I said : go experiment

[crude ice]

Okk I'll try first

[shrewd ingot]

and post some clips now and then

[crude ice]

Ok but like

The song

The guitar sounds like more

Longer? The guitar notes

Mine just ends fast

[shrewd ingot]

that;s the decay ... either on the reverb or the delay

also try switching the reverb and delay .. sometimes it gives a different effect delay into reverb vs reverb into delay

[crude ice]

So I either experiment with delay or with reverb? And not both together

[shrewd ingot]

together usually

[crude ice]

There's no decay option in both delay and reverb pedals

[shrewd ingot]

you can enable / disable them too right ... see what you like best

i usually use both

[crude ice]

Ok

[crude ice]

So which do I need to tone?

[crude ice]

Also is it normal whenever I hit a note it will have a "tak" sound

It's like the sound of picking the strings

[shrewd ingot]

i have to hear it to know what you mean exactly

[crude ice]

If u listen properly whenever a string is picked there's a sound after

I tried turning off reverb and delay and it's still there

[shrewd ingot]

that is basically just pickattack ... try picking softer

[crude ice]

I tried my best to be very soft

And there's still the sound

It's only on tones with drives

The clean tones does not have this

[shrewd ingot]

try disabling the boost

it's pretty common to have this with high gain amps

[shrewd ingot]

Whatever sounds good

Eq I already explained... Cut some bass and mids .. add some treble

[crude ice]

Ok I'll try later

[crude ice]

Ok I was afraid it was my amp problem

[shrewd ingot]

can also happen when you mute the string too much ... you get that clack

[meager socket]

i love the sound of the pick

[crude ice]

Mute the string as in?

[crude ice]

Fr?

[shrewd ingot]

Have your palm resting on it

[meager socket]

yeah sounds great if yuou play it well

[crude ice]

Ok

[crude ice]

Yo I tried my best and tested every settings (the eq reverb and delay) but I still couldn't just get that tone like that cool ( more longer in the notes and like more drive?) mine just still sounds plain and just hitting a normal note it doesn't have that cool solo tone in it

[shrewd ingot]

Why not ask the AI thingy to make or search one ?

[shrewd ingot]

Share images of your preset ... Can't be right

[crude ice]

What should I write for it?

[crude ice]

Wait

[shrewd ingot]

Lead tone

[crude ice]

For now it's like this , it just doesn't sound that solo tone like the vid

[crude ice]

@shrewd ingot

[shrewd ingot]

you don't really need the drive on the tubescreamer

it does sound like a lead tone ... just a very shrill one

quick tip : vibrato comes from the wrist, not the finger

I also don't get why your pick attack is so loud ... with a similar setup I get something like this

[crude ice]

Howw

That's exactly the tone I want

Could it be the amp problem

But I saw on yt there's ppl also making tones like urs on the spark amp

[shrewd ingot]

And those presets are downloadable via the cloud ... Try that first ... Must be something you did differently... Try another amp , another reverb/delay .

And with amp I mean amp model

[crude ice]

I'll try

[crude ice]

I still can't get rid of the pick attack

It's so annoying

[shrewd ingot]

What kind of guitar is it ? Isn't it just because your cranking the spark ?

[crude ice]

Squier sonic strat hss

[crude ice]

Not rlly

It happens when low volume too

And when I wear headphones

[next folio]

How do you get the holy diver solo tone

[shrewd ingot]

You should make your own topic for this

[crude ice]

Yo bro it sounds like this for now

But the when u press on a note it still doesn't have that much distortion in it

I changed the amp , reverb and delay already

This is the closest to it

But the note just doesn't have a lot of drive in it

I cranked all the gain and all the drive in the pedal to the highest

[shrewd ingot]

That's already a big improvement...now learn to play something with feel

[crude ice]

Feel as in?

[shrewd ingot]

Feel in playing ... It's not all about just playing notes in order ...it's about how you play fhem

[shrewd ingot]

And how you go from one note to the next

Vibrato is a big part of feel, slides and things like hammer ons / pull offs

[crude ice]
