OK, I stole this from a guy in my hometown. If that's you, you know who you are.

This is what you do: remove the adjustment screws from your neck pickup. Switch to the neck pickup and set your distortion for maximum stun. Play your shreddest lick, and right at the climax, lean forward so the pickup falls forward and the magnets touch the strings. You need to have exposed magnets for this to work!

I just couldn't keep this inside any longer . . . :o

Am I sensing more than just a trace of sarcasm here? ;)
 
What would be even cooler is to take a lipstick pickup wired directly to a jack and use it as a slide.
 
The really screwed up thing about it would be that the pickup would 'hear' on both sides. So you would get the note you wanted and the note behind the slide. You can play one string harmonies!

That is a badder idea than mine . . . but slide isn't metal, so I still have some pride left! :o

I concur, the brutality award indisputably still belongs to mshilarious...

in this thread...

so far...

unless someone else trumps you....
 
here is my darkest secret chain 50 digitech/dod death metal distortion pedals together and plug them into any marshall stack and oh yeah add one of those 30 dollar ART mic pres with a tube in it for warmth. Don't use a normal pick cut one out of the bottom of a soda can.


on a serious note how many of these pedals do you think you can hook together before you can no longer tell when you are and aren't playing?
 
this works best with a blackface fender amp with original 2-prong cord. :D


cheers,

Why not make a cheap ass talk box (eg a speaker inside a sealed paint bucket with a tube coming out of it to your mouth) and instead of using a synth, hook up a massive wall of distortion striaght from your guitar. Might give a whole new dimension to the cookie monster growl vocals - you could vocalise powerchords and add words to lead parts! Wonder if this is possible...
 
an Ebow powered by 120 VAC used in conjunction with a sustainiac running at 18 volts and of course drop D tuned.
