How to get closer to that 'harp' sound? I'm thinkin about the 'Zoot allures' short solo, as you can hear on the studio album track...
As far I knew, Zappa installed a Barcus Berry tiny mic (around the 20th fret) IN the neck of his Strat to catch that 'percussive' tone...
I've been trying to add a second amp (set only for clean sounds), it works good (if you carefully mix drive lead and clean volumes).. yet I usually play mono, cannot always bring a 2nd amp to rehearsals...
so I was thinking about a simpler solution...what about splitting guitar signal BOTH to amp and DI to P.A.?
any experience? simple and cheap solutions are welcome:AOK
thanks for replies.
