How to achieve "rock & roll" tones from the electric guitar.?

My electric guitar sounds like an electric, acoustic guitar. I wanted to learn how to play great rock and roll songs, but I have no idea how to alter the sound through the amp so it sounds cooler.How to achieve "rock %26amp; roll" tones from the electric guitar.?
Get a Zoom 505 pedal. It`s got all kinds of sounds and you can dial in pretty much any sound of guitar you like. Around $115.00 bucks but well worth it and you can get the Dimebag type sound or a Stevie Ray Vaughn sound or clean. It`s great and any guitar store should have them. Has delay, Flanger, all kinds of stuff in one pedal. Also depends on your pickups and tune your guitar down a half step to a whole. Also use 10 or 11 gauge strings.
just play around with the amp settings. or try getting a distortion petal, which most rock player do. =]How to achieve "rock %26amp; roll" tones from the electric guitar.?
is there a drive select switch on your amp if you press that it normally gives you a stronger sound
if your amp has a gain or distortion dial, turn it up. If it doesn't, go and buy a good distortion effects pedal. I'd reccommend an Ibanez Tube Screamer. It is one of the classic effects. You can get one for about $80 to $90 at just about any music store.How to achieve "rock %26amp; roll" tones from the electric guitar.?

You need distortion effects. Does your amp have an overdrive on it? That's a start.



Beyond that, there are pedals and various other effects devices that can do all sorts of stuff. There are even some now that are designed to make a guitar sound specifically like a famous guitarist. For instance, you can buy the Jimi Hendrix model.



And there's no reason why you would have to use just one effect. You could put two or more in line. Try different combinations.

Check musiciansfriend.com
Scope the EQ (the knobs that say "High" "Mid" and "Low") turn the knowbs so the Highs and the lows are higher than the Mids are.



CRANK THE GAIN KNOB!!!! Always important.



You might want to look into buying some effeects pedals specifically distortion pedals. I would suggest one of the Boss or Ibanez pedals. The Boss DS-1 distortion is pretty darn standard but they make a variety specifically for blues to rock to metal. Ibanez has a great pedal called the Tube screamer that is used by millions of guitarists around the world. Everyone from Stevie Ray Vaughn to the guitarist from Killswitch Engage has/uses one.



If you want that classic rock guitar solo sound you might want to get a Fuzz pedal not a distortion pedal. The Elctro Harmonix "Big Muff Pi" is one of the best Fuzz pedal to ever exist. It has been on countless recordings and is used by people like Santana and The Mud Honeys. I personally love this pedal more than life it self. I use it evertime I pick up my instrument (Bass guitar).
