Any ambient guitarists?

I'm more of a blues guy, but I do enjoy playing ambient stuff as well.


Delay pedals are the best to bring out that type of sound, along with some reverb. With that you can do a lot. It's not like you need a shite load of expensive pedals.

Thanks for the info. I'll being playing a select strat through a deluxe reverb so the reverb should be covered. I've got a boss delay but from the looks of it Ill need to stack delays right?

You need loop pedals. They're not cheap, but you don't need new ones. Used. Always used.

I will do some atmospheric stuff from time to time, especially as intros to certain pieces of heavier music. Modulation effects are heavily used. I like running a delay in the loop (Carbon Copy) and then an MXR EVH Flanger, Fulltone Dejavibe, Analogman Chorus, Digitech RV7 Reverb, then a Morley Little Alligator Volume Pedal. I rarely have all pedals on at the same time and experiment with dif combinations. It's great to create an environment to do lead work on the top of.
