Let’s talk tone.
Is it the most important factor in your playing?
I cover pick choice and pick technique in detail in my course Rockstar 101 – Essential Guitar Skills For Beginners but today I’m going to give you some specific advice about choosing the best guitar pick.
Recording modern metal guitar can extremely tricky. Many of us love to crank up the gain and get those guitar tones really soaring and cutting through the mix, but when there is a huge riff, a booming bass, and lots of double kick to compete with, it can a nightmare trying to fit your guitar tone into the mix. This is the most extensive and in-depth guide to recording & producing modern metal guitar I have ever come across.
