okay so I have a zoom g1 guitar effects pedal. I was wondering if I could use it with my bass guitar. and can I use it with my bass guitar amplifier? with my guitar. thanks for the help guys.
Yes you can, many bassists do, Cliff Burton used a Guitar Wah pedal, and I believe Juscin Chancellor from Tool uses a guitar distortion occasionally. As I say in many of my answers, it’s all about the tone you want.
I play death metal. What are the most essential electric bass guitar effects for metal music. I was think distortion, chores, and wah. What you this brand, make, model?
What do you know about effects you can past to me?
I tried electro-harmonix big muff and metal muff. I what the Mayham, chimara sound.
I have a cheap but quality PD7 Phat-Hed Bass Overdrive. It is good for heavy metal, but is also very versatile.
Ive spent a few months learning my pentatonics but my guitar sounds a bit boring without an effects pedal…what type of effects pedal would be used to get a good sound to play solos?
I mean the the Master of Puppets solo sort of noise if that helps lol
I’m guessing you’ve already been playing with distortion, if not a distortion pedal is the way to go.
In terms of effects, the most common effect for solos is the wah. Kirk Hammett (Metallica) uses it alot along with countless other guitarists including Slash. Listen to the Sweet Child O’ Mine solo to hear him play with it. You could buy a wah pedal on its own or buy a multi-effects pedal that you can play around with heaps of effects and find sounds that you like.
how to do a police car chase on guitarI’ve been playing electric guitar for several years now and I want to buy an effects pedal, but I don’t know much about them.
The music I mainly play on guitar is songs by Muse.
At the moment it may be between a Zvex Fuzz Factory, Digitech Whammy Pedal or a Boss me-50, but the most I can spend is around £150 probably.
Does anyone have any advice on a guitar effects pedal I could buy?
Get the Boss me-50. That way, you get lots of effects, including a Whammy and lots of distortion.
I wanna list down ALL of the guitar effects because I wanna create my own line of fictional pedals
Effects generally fall under one of 3 categories:
– Amplitude modifiers: These would be your overdrive, distortion, booster, and fuzz pedals. Compressors and gates also fall into this category
– Tonal modifiers: This is where wah-wah pedals, graphic and parametric equalizers, and envelope followers live
– Time modifiers: Chorus, Phase Shifting, Flanging, Delay, and Reverb would all fall under this category.
The one effect that doesn’t neatly fit into one of those 3 categories are pitch shifters and octave dividers. Technically, they are frequency modifiers. Frequency is the inverse of time, but they still don’t behave like a time modifier, so I guess they are on their own.
With an audio signal, there are only 3 aspects you can mess with…Frequency, Phase, and Amplitude.
Go from there.
And BTW, which you come out with your fictional pedals, I’ll pretend to endorse them;)

guitar effects are the objects you see on musical instruments shop.. this effects change the sound produced by the guitar..overdrive, distortion, and delay are examples.
I need physics-related concepts..thank you very much 
uhh..i need specific fields in physics..and im not talking about the guitar..im talking about the effects..and i thinks it is metal and electronics is connected to it
The type,density, amount of pieces, grain of the wood species affects the way everything attached to it vibrates, just as adhesives used, finish applied and hardware do. Wood, then, along with all of the other factors, influence vibration of strings, nuts, bridges, pickups, etc. Since everything is attached, directly or indirectly, to the wood, it affects vibration of every single component.
Vibration= disturbance of electrical field. Disturbance of electrical field= sound. Quality and color of sound= tone.

Looking for a good guitar effects processor to play solos, rhythms for pop. My price range is less than $500. Any suggestions
I’m guessing you mean a digital multi-effects unit. I am not a fan of digital effects so I can’t tell you first hand. Many people like the Line 6 POD X3 and it’s about $500, a co-worker of mine has the Digitech RP1000 and he likes it a lot. It’s about $400 I think. Personally I would buy $500 worth of "stomp box" type pedals instead. I do have a Line 6 multi-effects that I play around with at home, it is a $350 unit but compared to my stomp box pedals it sounds like a toy. You could get a decent, distortion, reverb, chorus and delay for around $500.
