David Gilmour

[Mindriot]

Just saw his concert at the Royal Albert Hall.

What a musician, such talent and he's mellowed with age really well. I just can't get over his guitar tone, i would love some insight into that if anyone knows anything. A great version of Shine on, really tasteful - not that it wasn't to start with!

To get as close as you'd really need to play in the house rather than the Albert Hall, this is what I use:

It has some really good effects like the Uni-V, Muff, Blues Driver and some useful delays which help you to get closer to his sound. It's not perfect and seperate pedals would be better but for the money it really does the business.

I'd also recommend Guitar Rig, started using it the other day and am currently loving it, some say Amplitube sounds even better but I've yet to try that.

In short, you can't sound like Gilmour at The Albert hall but you can get as close as you need

Oh, a decent Strat helps as well but I'm guessing that you knew that
