How do we get that fat, low-tuned, scooped and almost synthesized Nu-Metal guitar tone? How do you get a punchy metal tone that instantly causes you to nod along? We've got it covered in our sound like nu-metal guitar lesson.
Leigh Fuge shows us exactly how to dial in the nu-metal tone using your amplifier and 3 key guitar pedals and shows us the importance of extended range guitars when you want that early 2000s metal guitar tone!
Watch as Leigh Fuge expands on our nu-metal guitar lessons by showing you how to scoop the mids on the amp, how to get that sludge tone used by Korn and Fear Factory and how nu-metal bands create those infamous drop-downs and middle sections using modulation effects.
This is slowly becoming one of the most popular styles of metal right now, and with the right amp and pedal settings, you can get that heavy and aggressive sound in your own playing!
What's your favourite nu-metal band/riff/song? Did you know that scooping the mids on a guitar amp is a technique used by Queens of the Stone Age, too?
