Bill Ruppert: guitar as Uilleann Pipes!

a new Effectology video based on a "guitar sound" inspired by the uilleann pipes sounds of by Davy Spillane.
In this episode of Effectology I explore how to produce sounds like the haunting Irish Uilleann Pipes, Harmonic Drones, Giant Field Drums, and Backing Strings all using just a guitar and effect pedals.
Uilleann Pipes are an early form of Bagpipes that date back over 300 years.
They are one of the most expressive and beautiful instruments heard in Irish music.
Now guitar players can capture some of that magic on their instrument.
