How to get a surf guitar sound? (in the box)


Recommended Posts

I'll need to get a surf guitar sound and I would like to achieve that in Logic, all in the box, with the stock plugins and instruments.

And I know almost nothing about surf music ☹️

So, in your opinion, which guitar should I choose, which pedals (not sure they used pedals) and amp?

Use the cleanest sound from a fender amp. The spring reverb is what you want. 
throw on a compressor set fairly high. 
for your guitar use single coil pickups and use the bridge pickup. Brand new strings give it that extra twang. 
 

if you still have some issues I can find a few minutes this morning to make a patch.

I mean I don't play guitar (too painfull for my fingers and obviously for an audience 😁), all has to be "fake", in the box, with the Logic's guitars, Logic's pedals, Logic's amps and a civilized keyboard. 😁
