Fun Toy!!! [Posted on 2005-02-04]
The Jellifish is the first radically new thing I've seen for guitar since the Ebow. I love innovative musical tools, and the Jellifish delivers. I am a guitar instructor and teach over 50 students a week from beginner to very advanced. I have had all of my students purchase the Jellifish because in order to get the Chorus! Pluck! and Bow! sounds you must master 3 picking styles that every guitarist should know how to use regardless. Specifically, a fluid, sweep picking technique will produce a lush chorusing effect that is a cross somewhere between a 12-string and a chorus pedal. Alternate picking, when done properly from the wrist, will produce the Pluck! effect, which somewhat sounds like a hammered dulcimer. And circular picking -- done from the thumb and forefinger -- will obtain a bowed effect that is very nice on slower, scalar patterns, but can also be used on arpeggios. 100 years from now, the Jellifish won't be novel, because every guitarist will use this the same as they do capos and slides. Minimal proficiency with this device is de rigueur for any serious student of the instrument.
ebow is a symphony [Posted on 2006-08-04]
First, I've been playing guitar for 41 years now. I've been around. In fact, I had the very first ebow.It usually required you to pluck the string slightly and the ebow would continue IF you had it positioned just right. THIS version is effortless, has harmonics and can emulate everything from strings to brass depending how you position it. If you remember Queen's very first albums saying they did not use synthesizers, this is how they made some of their sweet sustains. The list of who uses this item is a virtual Who's Who of rock/ Easy to learn, easy to use.
Beautiful [Posted on 2008-10-24]
I have had the eBow for two years. IT IS AWESOME! Using some delay and reverb with an eBow creates tones that sound absolutely beautiful, you can't really describe it. It's very atmospheric and ambient when used creatively with FX. If you've heard U2's "With or Without You", this is what the Edge used to create those sustains for the first minute of the song. This is the underground secret for a lot of artists, including Angels & Airwaves (Star of Bethlehem), Pink Floyd (Take it Back), Linkin Park (No More Sorrow), and even Weird Al Yankovic (Callin' in Sick).
