Steve Vai's Funky Sitar | From jschrepfer@fimatinjapan.com |
|
The end of Boy from Seattle has a cool effect in it. He makes a
Sitar-type sound by bending ta note on the B string many steps up,
enough to pull it off the fretboard on on the side of the neck. Then
vibrato-bend the string so it repeatedly goes on and off the edge of
the neck. The rapid rise and fall of the pitch gives it a sitar-like
quality. This is hard to explain via tab, so one is not included. | |
