Does anyone know how, for example Alexi Laiho, does the "Rrr"-sound with his guitar??!? this "Rrr" sound comes in Kissing the shadows at 3.28, and in children of bodom at 3.10. If someone knows how to do it, please help me..!!!
Turn the volume up extremely high to the point of feedback and then yell "RRRRRRR" directly into the pickup. Depending on where you are fretting the strings with your left hand, you can change the basic pitch. It sounds especially evil if you can apply some whammy at the same time.
I'd say that's a Floyd flutter of some sort. I usually do these by rapping my fingers over the trem bar, making the trem vibrate rapidly for a short amount of time.
Put the vibrato arm around back so its pointing away from the headstock and pull it so it slips out of your hand real fast and when it springs back it'll make that sound. That's how I do it anyways. Andy LaRoque and Steve Vai do it all the time.
My trem bar rattles a little bit and the clanky sound goes through everything sometimes, is there anyway i can fix this without goin from sho to shop looking for abar that fits?
