A lot of bands of this caliber record “wet” and “dry” tracks. You have the base track (dry) that is the guitar “tone”. Then you layer another track on top of that that’s saturated a bit. And combined together you get a solid guitar tone that’s clear and muddy in one.
@@EmazingGuitar Pete Thorn and That Pedal Show have done some great videos on that concept. Isolated guitar tracks of Alex Lifeson's playing reveals the same thing.
Respect for emotional rescue living on the inside.The melody and lyrics easily convey the jungle of honoring one's own country and the high cost of dying. Jerry Cantrell understood the perils of the Vietnam war and awakens the rest of mankind lest they forget.
the simple two chord with a flanger chorus pedal combo make it really good and then with just a little gain on the amp then that distortion pedal boost it and pushes that nice gritty tone makes it perfect for clean and dirty
I've been experimenting a bit at home and I'm very close with a flanger and a chorus at the same time for the clean part. In my case it was an EVH flanger in combination with a MXR Analog Chorus over the "clean" channel of a Splawn Quick Rod. For the speakers I used Ownhammer Greenback IRs. I know it's not what Jerry Cantrell used but my guess for the clean sound is a combination of a flanger and a chorus.
"ROOSTER" Ain't found a way to kill me yet Eyes burn with stinging sweat Seems every path leads me to nowhere Wife and kids, household pet Army green was no safe bet The bullets scream to me from somewhere Here they come to snuff the rooster, oh yeah Yeah here come the rooster, yeah You know he ain't gonna die No, no, no oh, you know he ain't gonna die Here they come to snuff the rooster, oh yeah Yeah here come the rooster, yeah You know he ain't gonna die, oh No, no, no oh, you know he ain't gonna die Walkin' tall machine gun men They spit on me in my home land Gloria sent me pictures of my boy Got my pills 'gainst mosquito death My buddy's breathing his dyin' breath Oh God please won't you help me make it through Here they come to snuff the rooster, oh yeah Yeah here come the rooster, yeah You know he ain't gonna die No, no, no oh, you know he ain't gonna die
Sorry for the late answer, but I have no isolated tracks for Junkhead. There is Jerry Cantrell isolated Man in the Box video (m.ruclips.net/video/CHSk4sjA4yM/видео.html), not 100% accurate because it includes a bit of Staley's backing vocals too, but I just don't eant to double the already ezisting video.
The arrangement and composition of this song is absolutely masterful. I feel like the lyrics are even clumsily matched together if you look at them line by line but when you take the song as a whole it's unbelievably powerful. When I notice things like awkward or seemingly off the wall lyrical choices it actually makes me happy because I see the human imperfection; it's the struggle to communicate things that are felt so deeply and the desperate reach for the right words but the writer comes up short because the reality is too much to fit into a song and all they can do is give a painfully brief glimpse of the true story.
Love the complexities of every. Single. Solo. Without fail, every every riff he writes, and lyric he sings, he delivers something to sit back and thing on. What an honor to live at the same time as him. ❤️🤘

3 years later but there's AI nowadays that can do isolation pretty effectively, people only have the official stems from songs that were in guitar hero and rock band games, the record company give them to the devs
Nope. It’s definitely a Deluxe Electric Mistress Flanger. That’s what nails it. Not even my mxr 117 flanger gets it perfect. My phaser sounds no way like this track. It heavy flanger with chorus and some reverb.
It was Layne Staley falsetto, layered at least twice or thrice. There are few live shows especially after 2005, where Cantrell sings or co-sings the intro, and he sounds different to Staley's or DuWall's manner. So, on studio, Cantrell only sings the pre-chorus.
@@TimboSlice_ im getting it with a Vox stomplab 2G for the half step down that multi effects VOX goes into my DS-1 boss then i use a EHX small clone into my Line 6 spider IV and use the built in flanger effect and a Jackson JS12 Dinky with stock pickups and WOOO wee do i get pretty darn close to the tone
Jerry's tone is so gnarly but clear at the same time. It's heavy and saturated, but you can hear every note and I love that about him.

Slightly panning the tracks makes the sound really open up as well. Creates a big wide presence
it’s the guitar too. Those G&L rampages and invaders have a very distinct sound. Bright but deep and dark with incredible sustain
The start is on the neck pickup and then he switches to the bridge for the distorted sound then back to the neck .
2:42 Man that distortion and the work of the pedal .....epic
Those armonies were gold. Jerry is a good singer. Love him
Good singer, guitarrist and composer
Intro has a very mesmerizing tone, pure nostalgia...

The guitar melodies going with the main chords make it so haunting, like in Would
the simple two chord with a flanger chorus pedal combo make it really good and then with just a little gain on the amp then that distortion pedal boost it and pushes that nice gritty tone makes it perfect for clean and dirty
I had no idea that was the vocal melody he sang. When you put Layne over top it creates something totally different.
I am here bc I am supposed to learning the Jerry harmony for karaoke with my brother in law tonight lol wtf
I’m captivated by AC. Cantrell has kept true to his creative ability in spite of the difficulties keeping a band together. Amazingly great music,
NOW I KNOW WHAT EFFECTS HES USING!!!! ITS A FLANGER!
Wah Pedal, Delay Pedal, Phase 90 Pedal.
Sounds like a chorus pedal
EHX Electric Mistress Flanger, yep. No Chorus and no Phase 90, also just a tad Delay on the Cleans.

I think he used Neck pickup and all way down wah pedal for clean
"ROOSTER"
Ain't found a way to kill me yet
Eyes burn with stinging sweat
Seems every path leads me to nowhere
Wife and kids, household pet
Army green was no safe bet
The bullets scream to me from somewhere

Yeah here come the rooster, yeah

No, no, no oh, you know he ain't gonna die
Walkin' tall machine gun men
They spit on me in my home land
Gloria sent me pictures of my boy
Got my pills 'gainst mosquito death
My buddy's breathing his dyin' breath
Oh God please won't you help me make it through
Here they come to snuff the rooster, oh yeah
Yeah here come the rooster, yeah
You know he ain't gonna die
No, no, no oh, you know he ain't gonna die
Jerry's part in Man in the box would be a good video next. Also Jerry's guitar in Rotten apple!

@@MarcumUPhank hill is that you?
Very interesting. Thank you for this.
Wow the vocals are nearly ALL Layne except for Jerry's small--but important--bits on the chorus line.
Thank you Jerry 😊
I can still hear the bass in my head in the intro
Well done! This is great ☺
What a ecstasy
Thanks for this
Nice guitar. Looks like one of malcom young’s
Awesome thank you!
Jerry holding a Malcom Young gretsch is just so sick to me for whatever reason
❤
Can someone do this for I Stay Away?
Unfortunately, I can't, I don't have even the isolated guitar track for it.

The delay at the end 😚🤌
AIC = 👑
Jerry isolated vocals in No Excuses and Down in a Hole please
Unfortunately, I only have them mixed with Staley's ones.
2:49 straight goosebumps
pra mim, esse eh um dos melhores vocais q o mundo tem, pprt
I heard the tone is made from six guitar tracks with highs mids and lows separate
Might be, I hear a lot of chorus and phaser applied to the clean track.
He doesn’t always use all 6 but yes that’s his typical structure - 2 guitars for each. Them bones has all 6 rolling and you can tell
@@Cthulhu_Awaken is it flanger or phaser??
@@kj4ilk Phaser.
Nope. It’s definitely a Deluxe Electric Mistress Flanger. That’s what nails it. Not even my mxr 117 flanger gets it perfect. My phaser sounds no way like this track. It heavy flanger with chorus and some reverb.
Love this ❤️
What is using for the clean guitar
I have read it was flanger with a little bit of distortion/overdrive.
it's a boss metal zone.
but really, i read jerry used a DOD Ice Box Stereo Chorus back then, and some flange is on there too. with some drive like Red Raven said
The chorus tone on the actual song sounds way bigger. Probably because of the bass
Is the symbol in the beginning Jerry too?
Just trolling 😂 :p
Can you do an instrumental?
Techinally I can. Alas, I barely have a time for it now
Don't worry, do it when you can. 😉
Did Jerry not contribute to the intro vocals on the record? Was it just Layne singing two tracks?
It was Layne Staley falsetto, layered at least twice or thrice. There are few live shows especially after 2005, where Cantrell sings or co-sings the intro, and he sounds different to Staley's or DuWall's manner.
So, on studio, Cantrell only sings the pre-chorus.
Can anyone tell me exactly what pedal Jerry used in the intro of the song?
I’m pretty sure it’s an electro harmonix small stone phaser pedal
Usa anche un chorus sul distorto?
please check out my cover of rooster, feel free to ask any questions about the tone i got
Someone please explain to me how the fuck to get this tone
Flanger and some overdrive
Friedman JJ Junior amp and G+L Superhawk guitar really help too. Its a straight forward way to get in the ballpark of this tone
@@TimboSlice_ im getting it with a Vox stomplab 2G for the half step down that multi effects VOX goes into my DS-1 boss then i use a EHX small clone into my Line 6 spider IV and use the built in flanger effect and a Jackson JS12 Dinky with stock pickups and WOOO wee do i get pretty darn close to the tone
Digitech RP 360 has a preset called “Rooster”. I bought the thing just for that one preset and it nails it.
can i request?
Hello! Request what in particular?
@@redraven3769 Jerry cantrell's acapella in both Rooster and What the hell do i have plz!
@@duncan3998 Sadly I don't have isolated tracks for the latter. Can try the first one however.
@@redraven3769 Ok.
Chorus effect or phaser?
I think both or only phaser
Flanger
As I have read it, flanger with a little bit of distortion/overdrive (I mean the least distorted pieces)
Chorus all the way
EHX electric mistress
Less is more
blech. ytf would you want to hear jerry only
