[@samuelgiovannipaparella]

Sam you made me almost cry with the outro track, magnificent playing man!

[@amirsommer1522]

I think its a song by Devendra Banhart and Noah Georgeson called “Rise From Your Wave” - btw really recommended ambient album

[@FreekvanderWeele]

This is a real cool guide to get started with ambient guitar. Thanks for this. Very helpfull.

One of the best explanations of what is ambient guitar about for beginners. Congrats and thanks! Greetings from Panamá

How do you know they are guitar beginners? Maybe they just want to learn more! Some people like to learn new stuff all their lives!

[@digitalramyun]

The opening piece reminded me of Chords Of Orion - that’s a good thing 👏🏻

[@dreamcity7514]

reminds me of the band hammock

[@samratbarat19]

Just the right kind of video I was looking for. The guitar tunes tuned with my requirements. Absolutely stunning video. Excellently presented. Thanks a ton.

[@arthurcanal5250]

Impressed you managed to hold off nearly 10 minutes before playing a Radiohead riff lol. Great vid, need a Big Sky now!

[@jamesmgreen15]

This was way better than I anticipated, thx.

[@georgebluestorm2439]

Thanks Sam, I really appreciate your videos

For honorable mention, I really think you could add a octave pedal to this list .For me it's a must have for adding octave up angelic sounds, or lower octave ,for some synth tones .

[@9Nails]

Any suggestions for what octave pedal to get?

[@STRATMAN1969]

@@9Nails I have a few .Basically for different boards I have, and for different price ranges. For the price,and versatility, I love the EHX Pitch Fork .I have a Hungry Robot Monastery that has a cool feature that lets you click between two settings .For mini pedals I have a Mr. Black ,and a Hotone Skyline Octa ,both are great .

[@peteywheatstraws4909]

​@9Nails I picked up a Donnor "Harmonic Square" for $35 new, free shipping. Very versatile, lot of different options other than simple octaves. I'm out of town right now, just a 4 track, working on songs. I use it with my guitar, octave down for my bass lines. It's worth having in your bag for under $50.

[@STRATMAN1969]

@@peteywheatstraws4909 I just finished a huge board that does Guitar&Bass at the same time. With a spliter, 2 volumes, 2 loopers. Went with the Mooer Purer Octave for that one $80 but has a lot of settings, and features. That Donner is a pitch shifter, have you ever tried using it to do D standard, or C standard tunings?

thank you, this is very helpful

[@sirpatrickofgoober6603]

Really wonderful playing!

[@hervoice.account]

Can't wait to experiment with these 😮

[@LegendarySnomann]

anyone else who just put life on hold for that intro?

[@jasonhudson73]

Yes, but more so for that outro!

[@accentontheoff]

Excellent, thanks.

[@stuartmackinnon]

Awesome information! Thank you so much!

[@DTGuitarTech]

Another great pedal for ambient tones is the Gamechanger Audio Plus Pedal. Solidly made too.

[@Madeyes6]

Very good. Enjoyed this vid a lot.

[@residential-tourist6102]

Sounded pretty good. You should check out Digital Guitars UK as he creates the best ambient guitar pad and synth effects on the Fender Tone Master Pro, Headrush and Boss GT 1000

[@michaelcraig9449]

Yes I was trying to find out what ambient guitar is, compared to just using effects to get sounds. I want to learn more, I am not a beginner, just getting more into effects slowly.

[@seangeeling]

You mentioned the set up in a previous video too after using this guitar but never mention the guitar itself. I've never seen a Tele with tone and volume pots like that and middle pick up too. Which version Tele is this? Nashville in sunburst?

[@PMTVUK]

Hi, it's a made in Mexico Deluxe Nashville Tele with a couple of mods...it's had a Fender super switch added for a few more pickup options, and I've switched the knobs for 70's style witch hats as I think they look better! ;-p The new Fender Player Plus Nashville Tele's are pretty much the same guitar, so you've got the Noiseless pickups like on the Deluxe, but you get the extra switching options as standard on a push/pull tone pot. Great guitars, hope that helps! - Sam

[@seangeeling]

@@PMTVUK They do look better. I want some now! haha. Thanks for the info. BTW I started watching this channel thinking it was only a Dagan thing for months but your vids have been popping up in the feed and I appreciate the clear style. I love the beard too mate. Keep en comin! Maybe a Tele comparison vid would be cool. I have a Squier CV sunburst tele that I love, but I when I do upgrade I may go for the Nashville so I can get the Strat sound but keep the Tele sound too. Was going to get a black scratch plate to emulate the Jason Isbel one. Actually I thought that was yours. I dig it.

[@dreamcity7514]

What are some of the genres tyhat use ambient guitar? I am obsessed with the sound, but can never find anything to listen to when I workout, or want lyrics. There are genres like shoegaze, but they usually prioritize chorus over reverb.

[@cooperyorksmusic3865]

Damm

[@moonhead6165]

great beard & great vid

[@mikki_ams]

My dream

[@johnhimura1000]

Thanks Tim from wish

[@dmr9767]

That volume pedal sounds like a violin

[@GREG_Khar-NÜ-Metalhead2000]

u look like both "malfoy" from Harry Potter and "Blonsky" from Incredible Hulk

[@workerdrone4516]

Music to drown to

[@peteywheatstraws4909]

Caline Mariana will help with the undertow, cool modulation-chorus pedal.
