Sleepwalk #8 All that Jangles Does not Chime
Channel: The Digital Guitarist
Date: 2020-07-08

A deep dig into a particular branch of guitar history, starring the newest member of the family, my Danelectro 59x12 twelve-string electric (track listing below).  We will walk through the differences between British invasion "chime" and sixties American folk rock (and beyond) "jangle."  Using VST Plugins to emulate them, this digital guitarist episode models both in order to point out the subtle differences and not-so-subtle similarities in the guitar tones of these two genres.  Then we bring it up-to-date with a brief diversion through 80s new wave and 90s shoegaze to arrive at a modern sound that brings out the best of the jangle and the chime in a current context without emulating either. I've since worked even harder on my modern jangle and will do a run through of that alone on another video.
