So I had a good idea, I put some delay on with the Max delay time and did even staccato eighth notes and it sounded a lot like there was two guitars and it sounds really cool, anyone have any ideas on how to use it because I see a lot of potential in it I just can't find a gyruood practical application

Buckethead has an awesome song where he uses delay. He uses it in a lot of songs, but this one sticks out to me. Wouldn't really lump it in to the 2 guitars sounding kind of thing like you described, but it's still some cool delay effects.

That Buckethead album had a huge impact on me at the time it came out. It was the first example I had heard of nylon string guitar being used in such an untraditional way. So many of those licks are in my playing whether I want them to be or not. :eek:
