the hardest part of any My Bloody Valentine song is to figure out the tuning, after that….any beginner can play these songs
Thanks for watching! Yeah, actually playing the songs is not too difficult. I'm still somewhat new to guitar, so MBV has been great to play for me.
@@charietuna2132 You have a nice setup for a beginner. Not necessary, doesn't hurt. Great tone.
tuning?

is that the j mascis squier? love it man
Thanks for watching, and yes it is! Really love this guitar.
Hey, do you mind sharing what pedals you used for this cover? Really like the tone.
Thanks so much for watching! For most of my MBV stuff, I'm using the middle pickup on the JMM and the "80s Rock" amp (the Marshall JCM800 sim) on the LT25/GTX100 with 8 for mid and bass, 4.5 on treble, max volume, and 2.5 gain. I usually supplement this with external pedals, either the BD-2 or SF300 (boost).
This sometimes cover actually uses a different setup than my usual. The "Big Fuzz" (the Big Muff sim) stomp effect makes up most of the sound, but I find that this effect doesn't play well with the Marshall sim. So I actually use the "Super Clean" amp to really let the fuzz do the work.
Amazing
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for watching!
I just got this same guitar and amp, do you have any suggestions for amp presets, settings, pick-ups etc to get good shoegazey/indie sounds? You've got a nice sound here.
Thanks so much for watching! I'm excited for you -- it's such a great combination. For most of my MBV stuff, I'm using the middle pickup on the JMM and the "80s Rock" amp (the Marshall JCM800 sim) on the LT25 with 8 for mid and bass, 4.5 on treble, max volume, and 2.5 gain.

Hope that's helpful!
just play loud that’s it
Haha that's definitely an important part of it!
Awesome. Torn on picking a jag or a jazz. Either way I’ll be in love.
Thanks for watching! Haha yeah I'm thinking about getting a jag myself. What particular jags/jazzmasters are you interested in?
@@charietuna2132 im a broke student so really any squire option LOL id love to play shoegaze but at the same time I'm interested in metalcore and hardcore so i don't know whats gonna be the better option
I feel like I’ve seen a good amount of squire jags and jazz with humbuckers so maybe try finding one of those to be able to have the best of both worlds, metal core/ shoegaze
@@jared2698 ty so much for the advice! Still looking, I think I’m gonna buy one soon
I tabbed off of this and forgot it wasn't the original version
Did you tune open D?

@@charietuna2132 thanks
I know he likes non-standard tunings; is that the tuning Kevin uses?
steven steptoe for this song, yes, but he uses many others
Need to wrap the trem arm under your pinky and index so you can push pull with out cutting your fingers. Once you master the trem you’ll be good to go. Also, roll back the tone to take off some high frequencies, makes the guitar sound more like a dark wave. Better for MBV tone with newer gear
Thanks so much for watching and for the suggestion!
@@charietuna2132 for sure. When I have time I will make a video for you as an example.
@@charietuna2132 also, I didn’t see you commented on this and posted again 😂. Stay gazing
I like the cover but there is way too much high end on that fuzz
Thanks for watching and the suggestion! Yeah, the tone definitely isn't all the way there -- if I were to rerecord this, I'd keep what you said in mind.
yeah i think the pickup switch shouldve been up with the tone rolled off - gives way less high end but keeps the meat of the sound
What's the tuning?
Thanks for watching! It's DADAAD.
This is amazing. Could you share the strumming pattern? From my eyes, there is only downward strumming?
Thanks so much! It is mostly down strumming with the occasional triplet, like at the beginning and when changing between the later chords -- should be easy to see where in the video when you're looking for it. Every chord pretty much has the same strumming pattern. With the down strums, I'm actually alternating between just playing the bass note, usually the low e string, and the full chord. Of course, the strumming is pretty fast, so it's not all that easy to hear, but it does help accent particular notes.
Here's a likely not very useful, very unscientific way to express the pattern of bass note vs full chord: DUN dun dun DUN dun dun DUN dun DUN dun DUN dun DUN DUN DUN.
is it a standard tuning??

I love the tone, mind telling me the secret?
fuzz/distortion effects, mbv used the boss metal zone pretty frequently, also reverb is important, mbv used reverse reverb a lot.. but the big thing that makes the band sound unique is the strange tunings, loud volume and using multiple effects at once to create a wall of sound type thing, theres a lot of good videos on it out there
To add on, the main thing powering the tone in this video is that I used the Big Muff sim on my LT25.
Cool! any tabs?
Thanks for watching! I believed I used the chords here or maybe a slight variation on them: tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/tab/my-bloody-valentine/sometimes-chords-1236052.
@@charietuna2132 thanks!
not a fan of that fuzz tone personally, but nice playing
Thanks for watching!
Yeah I feel like it’s direct input. It sounds artificial like when I play with headphones on my amp
it's pretty bad
If you're not a fan of this type of fuzz then I dont know why you're watching MBV cover videos. He did it perfectly tho
@@manuelluismachado7277 I love shoegaze and fuzz, and I don't find this tone pleasant 🤷♂️ the highs sound very harsh
what is tuning?

@@charietuna2132 thank YOU!
