It is more or less an organic, excelerated feedback... it's not running through a digital processor? It's stimulating the strings without touching them and faster than I could myself. Where are you at with your tone... since you have it all figured out, and got a lid on it, I'd be curious to hear what your stuff is sounding like.
The only thing wonkery I'm seeing is your babblings full of double standards and hypocrisy 
For a Sonic Youth forum, I really find the majority of posters to come across as the most prude form of music snobs across all worlds of internet. It's funny, it's sad... it's kinda baffling  |
For me it goes back to the KISS theory (keep it simple stupid). I think FX are overused... "musicians" go running to them like a crutch when in search for inspiration without even mastering the basics.
(BTW this is not a comment on your links... I haven't checked them out. I just hate that fucking ebow!!)
