that dr. dre guitar

Black Animal · 10th June 2007, 09:37 PM

you know that guitar on "**** you" and "explosive"? any guesses as to how they got that sound, like what kind of guitar they used, or other gear/mixing techniques to make it sound so damn good?

xabiton · 11th June 2007, 04:47 AM

im not 100% sure but i believe its just a motif preset thats filtered to sound like a wah or possibly even run thru a wah pedal

deuc647 · 11th June 2007, 05:21 AM

Naw those guitars are by mike elizando, as far as what guitar he used, a while back he came out in SOS magizine and described his set up and what basses and guitars he has, hope that helps

Sirocco · 28th June 2008, 08:29 AM

I wouldn't get a new one, now that they're made in China. I think the ones from the 90's are the most desirable.

what? is u crazy? no, the BEST Mike Elizondozzz are '74s.

very rare nowadays.. saw one on ebay for like $30k.. but that was pre 9/11.. and you got a fairchild thrown in

stevens119 · 28th June 2008, 11:45 PM

I heard you can get one with a Black unmarked van, and some duct tape. Far as I know, that's the only way you can get one. Unless you've got big bucks to spend, and then you could probably afford a legal one. The Elizondo model I hope to get comes equipped with grammy awards. It's got a 53% swing setting on it too. Very nice.

It's a Fender Telecaster, into a clean tube amp.

You can probably get that Dr Dre guitar sound using a Stratocaster with some tweaking, but it's definitely not a Les Paul.

stevens119 · 29th June 2008, 02:46 AM

It's actually quite easy to do, if you are a guitar player. The plucks are created by palm muting. The actual guitar doesn't really matter. Although an american strat through an all tube fender amp certaintly doesn't hurt the tone. It depends on whether you were wondering how they got that sound, or how it was played.

lmfao@ amatuer haters.

i, myself, am a professional hater.

powarule · 29th June 2008, 07:54 PM

Iam NO rookie that I can promise you. Iam the rare type that as alot of hardware and can actually make music.

of course if you like I would gladly post something to shut your mouth and make you think next time before you call someone a amateur.

please post some music- I find it impossible that anyone who can say what I think is probably the dummest statement ever made on this forum to have even an understanding of music, neverless the ability to make it. It is clear you have no concept of what a music producers craft is to make a statement like that. No matter who is playing what instrument, ever track produced by dr. dre is a dr. dre track, and is impossible to replicate by anyone else...

BTW you don't impress anyone by mentioning the word "hardware"- this is a forum for GEARSLUTZ! It is not "rare" at all to use hardware.

Lets hear it we are all waiting...

powarule · 29th June 2008, 11:42 PM

1 - What I meant is most cats I run into have every piece of gear you can think of and cant make jack shit for music.

2 - You called me a rookie for no reason and you are wrong as you are about to find out.

Here is what you called the impossible:

used: ASR10 / WAX

I played the chops at the start to display NO simple drums over loops here.

no - if you had any cohesiveness in your thought you would see i was laughing at the fact he said "amateur" hater. ...specially since i contrasted it to me being a "professional" hater. as if there was a hater school or something. so stop trying to dazzle us 'haters' -- as the reward is nothing

Not horrible but not impressive man- sounds like some mediocre boom bap get a life... if this is your best shot that is sad. I agree with you sirocco I am done myself this forum is not for arguing I usually let rediculous comments slide it creates useless argument but for this one I just had to make my stance.
