  Difficulty:

  3/5

  In this Lite tutorial you can learn the guitar part to No Wow from The Kills album of the same name. This sparse and industrial sounding song demonstrates how a simple guitar part can be made to sound far more menacing by experimenting with distortion and pitch shifting effects. Although this would be an ideal tutorial for players who are new to using effects and want to experiment for themselves, you do not necessarily need to have these effects to play the song. Good luck!
