[G] Hey there, I'm Andy with ProGuitarShop.com and here's your next riff of the day.
It's Cake and the Distance.
I was always amazed how heavy this guitar riff sounded, but when you listen to the guitar
tone, it's actually on the [A#] cleaner side.
So we'll be looking [G] at ways to achieve this same kind of sound.
But before we start, I want to remind you about [F] Free Pedal Friday.
[G] Every Friday, ProGuitarShop has a free pedal giveaway.
And all you have to do to enter is click this link each week.
[G] Part of the reason for this guitar's heavier sound, despite it being fairly clean, is its
direct tone, meaning no reverb and a mic fairly close to the speaker.
We're also looking for an overdrive with a very dynamic nature.
And a great choice for this is the Mad Professor Sweet Honey Overdrive.
I've lowered the focus to extend the dynamic range and really accentuate those warmer,
low mids you get from a semi-hollow guitar.
And you can find this and other Mad Professor pedals at ProGuitarShop [F].com.

And you heard the Mad [F#m] Professor Sweet Honey Overdrive [G] deliver a dry, in-your-face tone
when picking harder and a [F#m] smoother, natural [G] overdrive when playing softer.
