There's a movie technique in which the camera moves forward on a dolly while at the same time the camera zooms out. When it's timed correctly, the subject remains stable in frame, but the perspective of everything in the background changes. It's called a dolly zoom. The Paul Gilbert technique of sliding up the neck while lowering the pitch with the whammy bar is the sonic equivalent of the dolly zoom, so if you're looking for a name for the sound, I'd call it the Gilbert Dolly Zoom.
Mick got that motorcycle sound from the Montrose song "bad motor scooter" I believe. Ronnie Montrose was very underrated himself. A young Sammy Hagar was the singer.
@@mark240862 hmmmm🤔, Personally, I have to believe, that was Ronnie Montrose, by his 🎸 lonesome, ...💯%❕ p.s., ... I've seen Montrose, many times in S.F., live.. the dude was 🤘awesome🤘🎸❕
Another favourite is the pull the D string over the G string at the 5th fret then pluck them together to get a chiming bell sound perfect for the start of Hells Bells
Jonny Greenwood gets a cool tone using the side of a coin w grooved edge(I use a quarter here in the US) to make a violin-type sound - different from an eBow.
Here's one you missed it's really easy and you don't need a tremolo the bird sounds in Freebird Gary rossington you use your slide and just rub it on the high E string with lots of distortion you can do cat calls, whistles and everything
I like the sound when doing hammer ons and pull offs on one of the top 3 strings, either the E, A, or D string, and simultaneously sliding the palm of my picking hand up and down the fretboard on that string.
I've been playing for years and I've always loved weird tricks but I had no idea you could play music from your phone through the guitar! I've even used an E-Bow and this still blew me away!
Lotta fun. Thank you. Re: the Motor bike. I think Ronnie Montrose was way onto this before the Crew. Check "Bad Motor Scooter" from the debut album by Montrose. For guitar/theremin action try the sublime "Space Station #5'.
Another cool one similar to Mick’s motorcycle is the NASCAR sound. Harmonic on the low E and A strings at 7th fret, start like the Elephant with bar down and volume off. Raise bar and volume together and intermittently take the bar down and back up in short strokes like changing gears.🤘🏼(sounds like a race bike on 5th fret and throatier on 12th)
LOL that was awesome and refreshing. James Iha from the Pumpkins and Steve Stevens has one of those old school toy ray guns with all the weird FX that he holds on his pickups....
Great job! Outstanding video. Should be more like this, by everyone else. Best way to learn is to watch and steal everything! Lol. Then make it your own!
It was Todd Rundgren who first did the motorbike sound on bat out of hell in 1977. What a unknown guitarist of the 70’s and 80’s that does not get credit. But…. Certainly did it before the guy you’re talking about
Genuinely laughed at R2-D2🤣. On the motor bike noise, there's a video of bat out of hell where they isolate that track where the guitarist goes from the motor bike, strait to a solo. Its EPIC !
12:20 I was at Church one time and my phone's notifications were on. Someone texted me and from my amp the youth group and I heard "droid." It was pretty funny
Great video man... there's one other trick I learned using a drum stick... like you might imagine Jimmy Page using a bow... but it makes a ghostly sound, kind of like a theremin! Try it out!!! Oh wait... I forgot the Great Eddie Van Halen and his Pound Cake Drill Sound that Brad Gilbert later used, as well as the beer can scrapping on the strings by the bridge for the Everybody Wants Some and Intruder sounds... not to mention, the hammer-on & tapping pulls that changed rock guitar forever! EVH was the GOAT when it came to guitar sounds, effects and mods! Also, one of my favorites... the Ray Gun effect by Steve Stevens... oh, man, another the scratching effects and use of the Whammy pedal by Tom Morello... some killah, cool sounds too! There could be a whole new video on these!!!! Rock on Dagan! 😎🤘🎸
Neil Young's Firebird pickup(Bridge) in Old Black was so microphonic it would pickup people talking. I would love to see what a cell phone can do with something like that. Also it would be interesting to see what Danse Macabre, twilight of the gods Funeral March, or Lol grab sections of Heilung with that female singer doing her Banshee Wail and having that through the pickups, it would be quite interesting on seeing how you could weave that into your playing.
Nubbing can get you some crazy computer sounds like Buckethead too! And I like that you can make the guitar sound like sort of a harp when you play the strings behind the bridge
My favorite is that rumbling sound Dave Mustaine gets in the intro of "Fatal Illusion". I don't quite know what he's doing because I've never been able to replicate it myself, but that intro is awesome
Steve Stevens uses... like, old mechanical ray gun toys (you might not be old enough to remember them) over his pickups to make weird sounds. And he also owns a lot of cool retro ray guns.
Bending behind the nut will make you need a new nut very quickly. You might be able to get close to it by pushing down on the back of the tremelo, as if you were pulling up on the bar, and then letting it back down.
I hear a touch of flange. If you find the right spots, you can get some funky sounds. John Cage experiments would be good too. The unnamed is the “ goat in the blender “.
The "nameless" one at 9:06 reminds me of those 'groan tube' toys; the ones you rotate, and it sounds like a cartoon being sick into a drainpipe So let's call it... the _GroanTubescreamer_ ? The _Daffy Yuck_ ? Uh, the _Retchie Blackmore_ ?
I would call the Paul Gilbert noise an Escher Slide, after the artist M C Escher, who made the drawings of impossible stair cases, like the one that goes in a square without rising to another level.
Steve Vai does the horsie thing in the 1986 film Crossroads. It’s also got an early version of thr Bad Horsie intro, years before he recorded it in the 90s
You can't do that harmonic run without be thinking that you're going to play White Wedding afterwards.
Yep, 100% heard White Wedding 🤘
Or Motley Crue - Take me to the top
Zero smashing pumpkins
SOAD - Suite-pee
Easiest way to get weird noises from your guitar is to get someone who has never played the guitar, to play it.
Theres a different between weird and bad 😂
I tried to teach my dad to play smoke on the water and he accidentally did a pinch harmonic and couldn't teach me how (I didn't know at the time)

I think you coined the term dude. It's a Paul Gilbert Dolly Zoom.
I saw the call to name the noise and thought "Great! Writing opportunity! I needn't have bothered- you've nailed the perfect analogy :)
Mick got that motorcycle sound from the Montrose song "bad motor scooter" I believe. Ronnie Montrose was very underrated himself. A young Sammy Hagar was the singer.
I was going to mention this as well... I have seen an interview with Sammy Hagar where he said it was him that did the motorcycle part with a slide.

Man this was so fun to watch and learn! You're always crushing the strings with so much style and charisma. Keep it brother Dagan 🙌🏼❤️!!!
Dude, thank you! 🤘⚡️
bro i watch your mr crowley solo every day it's insane 🤘
Positivity of Dagan just have charged my laptop without even plugging it in...
Here's one I used to do a lot: paper clips on the strings. Sounds like detuned gongs. Add delay and reverb. Ooh, mystical!
Dagen the one you couldn't name was a Joe Satriani one that he called 'putting your hand down a Lizards Throat'!!!
That natural finish Kramer is gorgeous
The elephant sound was from Adrian Belew early 80's using a Kahler trem..
EVH Horsie and Elephant are the classics that never get old!!!! love it
I’ve become quite fond of this channel. You’re like the Russell brand of guitar videos. You’re a very animated character.
Eww don’t insult this man like that.
This will give me hours of experimenting fun! Thank you, Dagan!

Dagan is my new guitar hero, awesome
Love the Gojira noise
I like the sound when doing hammer ons and pull offs on one of the top 3 strings, either the E, A, or D string, and simultaneously sliding the palm of my picking hand up and down the fretboard on that string.
The Zakk Wylde dive !
The best use of bending behind the nut is the solo in “the wayside” by Tyler Bryant and the shakedown IMO
Hellecasters - The beak the claw is another masterclass in that
This is one of your top best videos of yours, bro!!
Great video, love the choices you included and the fun attitude 🤘
I WANT THAT ILLUSIONIST SWIRL KRAMER SO BAD!!!
I also like the Viper Baretta!
Loved this! Long before I could actually play a real note I would do this kind of stuff for hours and drive everybody crazy.
2:55-2:58 I call that The Tom Morello Noise.
I've been playing for years and I've always loved weird tricks but I had no idea you could play music from your phone through the guitar! I've even used an E-Bow and this still blew me away!
Lotta fun. Thank you. Re: the Motor bike. I think Ronnie Montrose was way onto this before the Crew. Check "Bad Motor Scooter" from the debut album by Montrose. For guitar/theremin action try the sublime "Space Station #5'.
The Satch squeal where he plays a pinch harmonic on an open string and then pulls the whammy bar with his left hand should be here.
An easy one. Running with the Devil intro to strum behind the nut :-)
You blew my mind when you did the phone pick-up thing🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
Another cool one similar to Mick’s motorcycle is the NASCAR sound. Harmonic on the low E and A strings at 7th fret, start like the Elephant with bar down and volume off.

When you flip that toy can and it makes that "eeeeaawww" noise
Brilliant, time to go scare the cat!
LOL that was awesome and refreshing. James Iha from the Pumpkins and Steve Stevens has one of those old school toy ray guns with all the weird FX that he holds on his pickups....
I'm still working on the sound of me taking a Sloppy morning Shit
😂🤣😂🤣
Great job! Outstanding video. Should be more like this, by everyone else. Best way to learn is to watch and steal everything! Lol. Then make it your own!
9:00 Joe Satriani calls it choking the lizard
The Gojira noise thing sounds weirdly like a phased effect. I wondered what the heck he was doing/using at first!!!!
I used to live talking through my guitar pickups back in high school.
I think the Paul Gilbert one should be called the “Cat Purr.”
Lots of fun…but surely Montrose should get the credit for the motorbike sound. Bad Motor Scooter 1973
I didn't know Human League was a guitar band. Oh, wait, you said Herman Li? LOL. Hey, you taught me a few new tricks, thanks!
This was a fantastically fun video to watch. You are a killer player and have GREAT camera personality!
I call that noise that Paul Gilbert did the "Cat in heat" noise.
Matthew Followill from Kings Of Leon Screams into his pickups in Closer
Was trying to remember the 'elephant harmonics.' Thanks!
I think I have the name for the Paul Gilbert trick…. “Pitch Switch” because the two actions essentially cancel each other out.
You missed the Seagull noise made with the Wah pedal, that David Gilmour invented and used in Echoes
Best noise on this vid.. the elusive brit talking quickly bahahaha
Thanks dagan for the the tips ad I gonna definitely try this and they sound too crazy 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
I'm pretty sure your neighbours and office mates have given up wondering, Dagan :) Fun stuff, as usual! :D
Missing the magnificent Dimebag squeal!
my best larfs of the week! thanks, Dagan!
Keep up the good work your an inspiration for all of us dudes who simply refuse to cut our hair in a manner society deems as acceptable
It was Todd Rundgren who first did the motorbike sound on bat out of hell in 1977. What a unknown guitarist of the 70’s and 80’s that does not get credit. But…. Certainly did it before the guy you’re talking about
And straight into the solo in single take IIRC
Dude, you are always so motivating to make me want to pick up a guitar and just have fun🤘
Second to last sounds like what I imagine a goat sounds like if it is drowning. The drowning goat noise.
Great stuff Dagan.
I bet the elephant sound would be easier and more fun with a volume pedal!
This is an awesome video idea!!!
Genuinely laughed at R2-D2🤣. On the motor bike noise, there's a video of bat out of hell where they isolate that track where the guitarist goes from the motor bike, strait to a solo. Its EPIC !
Another great sound is my neighbor knocking on the wall and shouting "what the fu*k bro?"
I swear I was talking to dagan when I went to pmt in Newcastle
Great stuff dagan!!
I’ll be adding ‘tickle your pickle’ to my everyday vocabulary
12:20
I was at Church one time and my phone's notifications were on. Someone texted me and from my amp the youth group and I heard "droid." It was pretty funny
why are the frets so big on that red and white and black striped guitar? Is it for ease of playing? If so, where can i get it??
Dagan, yer a goddamn prince... love your videos, my friend.
The horse will make your hair stand up when its done right. Its intense.
i love it! Eddie was the man. Keep up this good work Dagan, rock on bro!
9:05 I'd name that as the 'Wurgle-gurgle' LOL!
Thank you friend!
Holy hell this is fantastic. And Human League too, greatness.
This guy has had ALL of the coffee.
ALL of it.

Have you considered any Adrian Belew? Thinking King Crimson, albums like Beat and Discipline.
Nubbing can get you some crazy computer sounds like Buckethead too!
And I like that you can make the guitar sound like sort of a harp when you play the strings behind the bridge
@ 4.40 reminds me of the start of the song white wedding by billy idol
My favorite is that rumbling sound Dave Mustaine gets in the intro of "Fatal Illusion". I don't quite know what he's doing because I've never been able to replicate it myself, but that intro is awesome
Try tapping the back of your neck with some force. That's how Eddie Van Halen did that, I don't know if it is what Mustaine does
Nice
Dagan don't forget the Dolphin - push the B string down by the bridge humbucker poll piece with your finger really fast
Haha. Brilliant! Definitely gonna try a few of these
you mentioned farm animals but missed a typical farm animal--- flying PIGS, on wings & DOGS on acid!!
ANIMALS man!
Great video! The one you didn't know the name of is a Joe Satriani trick that he calls the "Lizard down the throat" sound. It's in Ice 9
Steve Stevens uses... like, old mechanical ray gun toys (you might not be old enough to remember them) over his pickups to make weird sounds. And he also owns a lot of cool retro ray guns.
I did the Elephant trick once.
Now I’ve got to report to the Police.
I would call the one at 9:14 "giving my cat a bath"
Bending behind the nut will make you need a new nut very quickly. You might be able to get close to it by pushing down on the back of the tremelo, as if you were pulling up on the bar, and then letting it back down.

The "nameless" one at 9:06 reminds me of those 'groan tube' toys; the ones you rotate, and it sounds like a cartoon being sick into a drainpipe
So let's call it... the _GroanTubescreamer_ ? The _Daffy Yuck_ ? Uh, the _Retchie Blackmore_ ?
This was a grear Kramer advertisement (mostly). :)
Brad Gillis also does the Mick Mars gear shift, but his is a Ferrari ;)
The chewy sound for the second last one
I would call the Paul Gilbert noise an Escher Slide, after the artist M C Escher, who made the drawings of impossible stair cases, like the one that goes in a square without rising to another level.
8:44 sounds like a cat...or perhaps a ROBOT cat!
Me, I had this sound I used to call "the seagull" (pinch harmonics with a high-rate phaser).
Steve Vai does the horsie thing in the 1986 film Crossroads. It’s also got an early version of thr Bad Horsie intro, years before he recorded it in the 90s
The Paul Gilbert one should be called “ The Wailing Cat”
(It’s actually called “Cujo Growls”)
9:25 sounds like that toy tube that goes woooooyyyyyaaaawwwwwooooyyyaawww
I remember Herman Li doing cat sounds on his guitar.
