Hi,
how would you get this amazing Cumbia guitar sound?
My best guesses are a fast delay with little feedback, spring reverb, tremolo…
But I don’t seem to find the right settings? Any advice on the right pedals and amps + their settings?
Very cool stuff! It sounds like the delay is brought in end out to accent certain sections. There is also some kind of modulation turned on for the B section. I would recommend trying a Leslie block for that except the QC’s Leslie block will ruin your tone. A CE-2 chorus (set the Type switch to CE1-V) or Vibrato block with a fast modulation speed and high depth settings might get you there. I’m not sure that I hear tremolo but I think you’re on the right track with the delay and spring reverb. Any good clean amp should work but their tone sounds pretty strident (solid state amp?) so you might start with a Roland Jazz Chorus (Rols Jazz CH 120) amp block. Please keep us posted on your tone journey.
