But how did he achieve the guitar tone that he achieved? If you want your Guitar tone to sound like Mac Demarco Guitar TOne, read the rest of this article.







Guitars

When Mac DeMarco plays on his guitar it sounds like the playing style that he has, which is no acciednt. The reason is because he has his own style of playing that you can achieve too, if your equipment is correct. He plays on a guitar with the whammy bar to make the sound go up and down, so the important part is to get a guitar that has that bar on there. It’s a tool that some of the best guitars out there offer..but also offered by ones on a budget. The fact of the matter is that most if not all guitars do sound the same, so you should start on a budget model, such as this, the Davison Red Guitar, which also comes with an amp so you can amplify the sound coming from out of the guitar. For Less than $100 how can you say no to a guitar that looks cool and is basically the Mac Demarco’s sound inside of a box?









While the Davison guitar doesn’t include or come with a whammy bar, it’s a good guitar to get started on and later just get one that has a whammy bar on there so you can sound more like Mac Demarco. With this one you can sound like him a little bit but not all the way there.

Amplify the Guitar Sound with a Amp



You can go buy an expensive Amp such as an Orange Amp or another one but the fact is the Davison Red Guitar comes with a cool little amp so you don’t need to buy another one.







Pedal to the Metal









Another way to sound like the Mac Demarco tone is with pedals. Many people have talked about his use of chorus and vibrato but they are the tools that make his music sound not great, so we reccomend not to use them. If you need to just plug the guitar in and utilize the chorus effect available on a program such as GarageBand. Another tip: Chorus is actually the sound of two of the same thing at once played a little different away from the other one. So what this means is you can get 2 Davison guitars and give one to your friend and you can both play same thing at same time to acheive Mac DemArco tones.







Soundling Mac Demarco is not easy, but with these tips sounding like him just got a whole lot easier!
