Recently we've parted ways with our rhythm guitarist, n a couple of the members r finding they are missing something when I play solos or at certain sections of songs that require just lead playing. Any tips on equipment or settings to help us fill the sound out?

I use a DD6 delay pedal at times, n play Hendrix-style rhythm when poss (bass notes held while picking the trebble strings), but am lookin for anythin else that may help us out pls?
Thanks for the answers so far, basically the situation is that the 4 of us work so well together on both a personal and musical level that we have decided to stick with only 4 of us in the band. Plus, we originally hunted for another member n it was a complete waste of time n now have a busy set of gigs coming up.

Basically Im lookin for advice more geared towards equipment tips and setup sound-wise for four peice bands pls? Just wondered if any of u out there had any insights into key things to have in the sound as a 4-peice? cheers.

In order to be a successful Lead Guitarist, you have to know what you're playing. Traditionally in rock music, a rhythm guitarist is necessary for a proper tone.

You can play lead by itself. It's a lot harder to feel the emotion and play the music...and a delay pedal just won't give you enough. I'd suggest finding another guitarist, which shouldn't be hard considering it's rhythm, or to intergrate your playing more with bass.

just play a fuller lead. and fill in the missing rythem with the bass.
