motorbike sound

[nitrovo]

just wondering how I make the sound of a motorbike starting up.

I've done it before but cant remember.

I was slidding a bear bottle on my strings this morning and it sorta sounded like it, but wasnt it.

cheers

floyd rose?

think is by using the tremolo..someone mentioned about this long time ago..you can do a search e :wink:

You need a locking tremolo (floyd) As you pick the last string 6th E or B for seven string then slowly push down the bar all the way down until it flutter

Actually i prefer calling the shredding sound the "vroom vroom" sound. U know when u play a fast lick with only the first 3 strings. 3 5 7 3 5 7 somethin like tht. Haha..it sounds like vroom vroom to me. On neck pup.

tried a float bridge ... bend it and strike the lower E and slowly let it go up and bend it down again ... it'll work

I was at the Marine Cove jazz thing where one guitarist made a pretty lousy tone setting on his distortion, and when he did pick scrapes on the bassstrings, that sounded like a motorbike starting up. And died.

Can try twiddling around with your distortion for a bad tone, do some weird strokes with your pick, and you might get that bike sound. Good or bad ones, I dunno though....
