Jellifish Chorus Guitar Pickby Jellifish
|
Product Description
The Jellifish pick is a different sort of a beast. It is basically a small pick with a bunch of very small metal tines that you drag across the strings on your guitar. The tines are sensitive and must be treated carefully. You can either use it holding the pick parallel with your strings like a normal picks, or you can turn it perpendicular and kind of scrape it across the strings. Using this scraping motion can create a 12 string or chorus like sound on acoustic and electric guitars and can do some cool things when recording.Reviews
12 string ring with six stringI love all the different sounds I can make with my Jellifish. Without having to plug in an effects pedal I can make my 6 string ring like a 12.
Still learning new sounds and writing new songs with the jellifish...it is endless fun and opens up new possibilities for little money.
AWESOME!I was shocked at the different sounds this thing makes. After just a few minutes the chorus sound was totall amazing, like a nice fluid bright 12 string, totally a cool toy for $10
Don't Waste Your Money!!!I saw a lot of bad review about this crappy item, but like a silly guy I bought it! Be aware that it may be an nonreturnable item. If you were me, don't spend your money on this pick! Buy a real chorus gear.
Most absolutely awful guitar product everYou know how when a regular pick hits your strings, you can hear the sound of it hitting the string, then after it releases and the string reverberates you hear a note? Well imagine hearing 15 picks hit the string before the string produces music. And the 15 picks are made of coiled wire.
I can't imagine a worse sound or feeling.
My Favorite Xmas PresentHello! I just got this new device for Christmas. I had never seen one before, but I guess they've been around for a while. Well, let me just say that this is the best gift I got this year even though it only came in my stocking. I have had more fun with the Jellifish than with anything else I got this year -- I'm just fascinated that this little guy can change your tone so big! Anywho, I would say that it's definitely not for beginners. You need to be a real player to understand how to use it. Why didn't somebody come out with something like this a long time ago is what I'm wondering! Is there a user group for sharing tips and licks?
Should be in every serious guitarist's gig bag!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.
