zigzagbigbag Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 Hi guys I am just learning the intro solo of Aint it fun and would be very thankful if anyone of you could let me know how I can get the feedback/sustain at the 0:06 second mark. Do I need some sort of a pedal? I have got a Les Paul and a Marshall DSL5 amp. In general I am very happy with my tone but cannot figure out how to create this feedback :-( Thanks very much in advance for your help!

adamsapple Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 Sounds more like plugging the string directly over the pickup in a flat angle with your pick while bending that note. If all else fails try standing real close to the amp and point your pickups directly to the speaker (caution though, at a certain volume level this might damage your equipment or ears). No pedal needed for this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voodoochild Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 You can also use the natural harmonic to get close to it, although it's not the pure feedback Slash got for the recording. I tried this out here: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was using the tiny Katana Mini at the time, so you're gonna probably get best results with a proper amp. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hold the note and stand with your pickups facing your guitar amp speaker (not too close), the note will bleed into harmonic feedback; you'll definitely be able to get it with a 5 watt valve amp. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
