A scan from The Techniques of E-Guitar Playing, excerpting the opening of the "Tension and Extension" score, with descriptive commentary: the player increases volume while gradually pouring water into a metal bowl resting on the strings, varying rate and quantity, stirring inside, tapping the edge and bowing the side with a comb to create a range of resonances when amplified by the pickups.
Much thanks to Seth Josel and Michelle Lou for including a reference to Tension and Extension in their incredible new compendium of electric guitar techniques The Techniques of E-Guitar Playing on Bärenreiter. www.barenreiter.us/products/the...
