.......Dont forget making your double echo match, and I don't have a bowl cut. I use two reverbs variated, 3 echos and compression with wah screamer hits. Light distortion or only hits here and there as inflections. I play goth rock classic era, and this is something I excel at. Anything from U2 to Pink Floyd "pong" mastery helps. ~~~They are not shoegazer bands as Slowdive is a better example. They were examples of guitarists who like to play with "pong" echoing".

Hey Ryan, I love your spirit! Watching this video made me really happy! I'm teaching shoegaze styles on my channel and must say: You did it really well! I'm impressed how close you've been to the tone. Good work! Many viewers already recommended My Bloody Valentine and Slowdive. They are a perfect start to discover the genre. My Bloody Valentine represents the "fuzzy" and "vibrating" shoegaze style (in my opinion). Jazzmaster guitar with whammy bar + reverse reverb into some vintage fuzz into a Marshall Amp with a slighly overdriven clean signal. Perfect for playing Mayor 7 chords! Slowdive represents the "spacy" shoegaze style. Warmer guitar clean sound -> chorus (or phaser, flanger) -> long decay reverb (shimmer) -> delay (sometimes dual delay) ... but that's just one example. In the end it means: at least 70% wet reverb and long delays. :) It must be wet!!! I personally love Astrobrite and Ringo Deathstarr the most. Very fuzzy stuff using Fender jazzmaster or jaguar guitars! The clean signal should be very thin or middy. Try a short Gated Reverb into your favourite fuzz or overdrive and bend the whammy bar in the middle of your chords ...if you have one on you guitar. If you like you can add some chorus (tremolo, vibration ect.) and delay as well. Love your channel! Keep it up!

Hey, I'm not an expert- but, back in 1989-1991 I was in a few bands that get called 'shoegaze"- and I still show up to concerts for bands that have been called 'shoegaze"- so just a few things I can add- as for playing, pick as gently as you can, virtually all of us were using pretty massive amounts of compression. Most of us were punk rockers who heard the Cocteau Twins, so we were still playing very, very basic progressions, just with tons of effects. This was the era of rack mount gear, so while the pedals were all over the floor- a lot more of the sound was made by digital rackmounts- I cannot count how many Alesis Quadraverbs I saw. That's the other thing- the Boss and EHX reverbs available at the time were terribly terribly noisy- so as often as not, it was actually 2 or 3 digital delays, set on relatively short repeats, with the aforementioned rack unit providing the actual reverb, along with the amp, if you had enough money for an amp with a decent reverb. As for drive- much has been made of the Big Muff, but I only knew of Kevin Shields having one- almost everyone was actually using a Heavy Metal distortion- either a Marshall, or Boss, and then, using neck pick ups to avoid the ice pick tone. So, for people now to try to get a "shoegaze" tone- just set it up the same as a "post rock' or "worship' board, and you should be about 90% of the way.

Matt Van Mantgem this is a good reply. Post-rock would be a good jumping off point and honestly IMO/YMMV the crowd wont realize the difference between a HM, a muff or a damn blue driver with the gain cranked. Maybe on a recording but you can get away with a lot of “cutting corners” live.
@mattvanmantgem8600

@@LeeGHThomas Thanks- yes- there's a semi-famous story of Ride playing Amsterdam with no effects at all- just unholy amounts of gain on their amps. With live sets- it's all about having hooks. You have a riff, or a vocal melody that's recognizable to the audience, and it almost doesn't matter at all how it gets delivered. Ever notice the popularity of "unplugged" sets in the 1990's? That's why. If the hook gets across, the exact instrument, or amplifier doesn't matter, much less the exact stompbox. Heck, most of Kevin's famous massive board only gets used for the 'holocaust' section of "You made me Realise" at MBV shows- in other words, it's literally "just for show".

gmscurto not a stupid question, ask away, that’s how we learn.....reverse verb is like a reverse delay where the tail is ‘cached’ and then played back in reverse after the set length of time - really cool effect. Gated verbs were used a lot in the 80s especially on drums (Phil Collins in the air tonight). Bands like MBV used them a lot on gtr too to cool effect. The verb is ‘gated’ after a set amount of time, that is a noise gate is slammed shut, thus ending the effect abruptly

Yo man, Ive been into this genre for about a decade so I can try to give my two cents. First of all I would suggest putting the fuzz or whatever distortion afer the reverb. To kind of get that signature airy sound you want to use a plate reverb with the decay turned all the way up so the sound trails. Another signature sound is the reverse reverb. Unfortunately there arent many cheap pedals you can find with the feature, i think i saw a chinese one for like 50 or 60 bucks once. Using reverse reverb in concert with a jazzmaster whammy bar is what really gives you that trippy bendy sound. Look up how kevin sheilds plays to give yourself a better idea of how to do it, it honestly sounds great. Though i havnt done it myself because i dont have a second reverb pedal, i reckon that throwing a plate reverb after the the reverse would sound amazing as well. I know that bands like showdive, which i believe you were listening to as I recognized some of the pictures on your tablet also use several delay pedals near the end of their boards. And from my own experience, there seems to be several schools of thought on shoegaze. My bloody valentine and the horrors both utalize that bendy reverse reverb whammy bar sound. Bands like slowdive still have the bendy sound but kind of round it out with more spacy delay effects. Bands like cocteau twins or the meeting places use what i think are reverb combos to gain an airy trailing sound. Check out the youtube channel pedal partners or the shoegazer channel if youre interested in the music and sound. Also more recently there have been pedals made that cater almost exclusively to shoegazers like the loomer, so there is a lot of interesting equiptment on the market that can really make your sound rad. Also, if you want to emulate the sound well, i think a common shoegaze trope is heavy distortion with tons of effects during a heavy chorus, but then during the verse theres often a really clean sound, i think most will just use an overdrive. You see it happens in songs like when you sleep by my bloody valentine and wavvy gravvy by flying colours. Anyway, you were sounding pretty good man, i hope you dove a bit deeper into the shoegaze rabbit hole. Theres a lot of really awesome stuff to uncover.

Yea you were pretty spot on gearwise, but your approach at this could use some work. Here's a few tips that helped me. -Chose your chords to emphasize your pedals instead of choosing your pedals to emphasize your chords. -You should learn de "melted/glide guitar" technique. It's to shoegaze what the pentatonic scale is to blues rock. -One goal you should try to achieve is to make it so that it's difficult to perceive your strumming. Bass and drums in shoegaze are really rhythmic but the guitars often have a "blurred" quality to them That being said, I can't stress enough how well you did for someone who knew nothing about the genre. A lot of your first instincts (jazzmaster guitar, reverb after drive, a lot of drive) were absolutely correct!

I always low key wondered what shoegaze actually is. Now I know: it’s Sigur Ros from 2003.

"My shoes are on, I've properly gazed them..." Excellent.... Also the verb before drive or distortion, I heard was the "secret trick" for the "genre" iput verb before distortion and it's raaaad

Sir Ryan, Super close! The chords just are played completely washed and more gospel/riff worshippy aswell and there's an overdrive pedal you didn't have room for missing. Pretty much nailed it.

The secret to contemporary shoegaze is to tune down, tune some strings down even more, play weird shapes on the low strings. Thick walls of fuzz, overlayed with wobbly reverb-soaked high drones and emotional vocals. Play the unwound strings open or fret a note and let it sustain.

He seems to be a nice guy but I find the whole thing pointless. The first thing is to understand this genre, I mean to really get it and I guess I should take far more than an hour. Then pick up your guitar, dry sound or just a crunch if you really feel naked, and write some music. If it doesn’t sound good, your effects won’t change a thing? It’ll be crap through reverbs, mods and delays but still crap :-)

Hey Ryan, fellow fuzz lover here. I have a new favorite Ive thrown into the cycle, the Haunt fuzz from old blood. Have you tried that one out? I highly recommend it. Not a pedal for the affordaboard, but I wanted to bring it up. Getting some good tones with your build. Very cool

Try reverse and shimmer verbs into drives. Don’t be scared if note clarity all but disappears in your chords. It’s all about the almighty W A S H.

Great idea for a pedalboard-building theme with the "afford-a-boards"! I must admit I was shocked that you were unfamiliar with the Shoegaze genre- this has probably been posted dozens of times already, but a good, quintessential shoegaze album that serves as a good starting point, My Bloody Valentine's opus "Loveless" is an absolute must-listen... perhaps this is one of those "maybe some bands I like are actually Shoegaze and I didn't know it" things you mentioned early on, ha ha…

I think Ryan found his true calling. Note: I have never listened to shoegaze in my life.
