I think when Tom goes nuts, and lets rip with all the feedback the track reminds me so much of the Fly and the edge's playing.

I don't know a lot about plyaing guitar and all the tools that go into it, but when he lets fly it just sounds like Edge.

If you're talking about the guitar solo, I don't think so. There are only so many chords on a guitar so you will hear some familiarity between different bands. It's a damn good solo though

Ergyu

agreed.

Capo2002

Yea I love that solo, it gives me the chills everytime I hear it.

Rypro 525

One of my friends thinks that solo is actually a synthisier.

TeeSeeJay

Every guitar player knows there are only 4 chords.

E G C D

Oh, the songs you can play just with those.

gross@iastate

I saw him play it live and it was pretty much exactly like the CD. He creates some interesting sounds with his guitar that do sound like a synthisier.

Amazing guitarist and one hell of a show.

Ergyu

Every sound on the Audioslave and Rage records were always authentic, no synth needed. The guy has always been pretty creative with the guitar. Personally I enjoy the more straight forward solos of the first Rage album, but I love all their stuff (and audioslaves and soundgardens lol.)

Michael Corvin

I have to say I wasn't impressed with their first song("cochise"), but "like a stone" has blown me away. I love it. Great solo.

Josh H

I'm pretty sure the back of the CD or the liner notes has the same disclaimer that was on all the Rage cds which is somethign to the effect of: "All sounds on this record were made with guitar, bass, drum or vocals."

DGibFen

There are guitar effects (and I can't remember which one specifically) that can shape the guitar tone to sound synth-like.

hahn

I think you mean E min

Imodium

I thought it was a whammy pedal he was using.

Adam Tyner

There are a number -- just to name a few, the Roland GR-33, Electro-Harmonix Guitar Micro Synth, and Big Briar's Moogerfoogers.

TeeSeeJay

that's a good way to change it up, as is Am, C(9), and Dsus4 (but not all at once )

Correct. For you guitar players, just set the interval to one octave above the signal. Morello still uses the original Digitech Whammy. They did re-release a VERY good-sounding re-issue a couple of years ago which I own. Some tone purists insist the originas sound better, but I'm not paying those kind of prices just to have one. Edge from U2 breaks out a whammy occasionally, also. Very distinct sound, and very cool!
