Staring at the Sun
Download Tone
I like this tone for this song, it was quite quick to program but is very effective in sounding like the original recording when played with a live band and a second acoustic.
Performance Notes
The acoustic does the main rhythm for this song, I play mostly the second guitar parts of keyboard parts for the verses. For the chorus, I use the wah and with a bridge pickup go for a very effected upper register riff.
On the outtro to the song, I sometimes turn on the REVERB I have programmed into this patch. Its a very short room delay and sounds completely unnatural. Its not authentic, so if in doubt, leave the reverb off on this patch!
