Shovel Metal

A one string shovel guitar. Can ya dig it?

and subscribe to Bob while you're there :)

The pickup on this thing is an EMG 81
Thanks to EMG for sending us one for the project. It definitely Djents.

The purple picks I use were given to me by Purple Plectrums

Drum programming was done by two Jeffs from the band Westgate.

My guitar courses are available within the Guitareo membership :)
Also, my beginner course, GuitarQuest, is still available on it's own too

The channel is supported in part by Sweetwater’s affiliate program. Thanks for that!

"Why do you play bass? "
"There's only 4 strings"
"Try shovel. There's only one string and you can hear it"

[jadensimmons]

Believe it or not this was the song that really got me in to metal. Here I am two years later tracking my first metal ep. Wish me luck!

What instrument do you play?
"Oh, I play the shovel..."

[kloga]

*Scrolls through top comments*

No puns about "scooped tone"? About really "digging" this song? About how the mix isn't "muddy"? About covering "Ace of *Spades*"?

OK, I'm done. But seriously, think of the puns!

if a shovel can be an instument... then mayonnaise can be one too

[CoolspyGaming]

The sound coming out of that shovel is amazing!
I really *dig* this.

Two windmills were alone in field. One looks at the other and asks, "What music do you listen to?"

The other windmill replied, "I don't know, I'm a huge metal fan."

[daphneloose]

I would love to see a heavy metal band played with garden tools.
now that would kick ass!!

[MrSpencerMcIntosh]

Producer: So what'll it be? are you a Jimmy Page guy for a Les Paul or more of an explorer like Hetfield?

Guitarist: well i really like the tone from this shovel.

[EoPatrux]

So both Jared and Rob woke up today and said "I'll post some guitar video today"
