How does one get this tone?

Is there a name for it? Sounds like there is tremolo and bounce back but it's the tone of the guitar I'm wondering about. It sounds like something Quentin Tarantino used in some of his westerns. Seems like it's a popular tone for banditos type movies.

The two songs I picked may not be the best example but it's what got me thinking about the movie genre and where else I've heard it.

That's an echo and spring reverb I think.

post production, added in from the console. a lil delay and reverb with some string rattle.

How you can do it~

guitar with back bow in the neck relief so the string rattle on around the 14th fret.

plugged into delay pedal, then reverb pedal, then into a semi clean amp.

adjust pedals to taste.

Most importantly?

He's playing a baritone guitar.

No wimps allowed. If you can't deal with a bass or 11 gauge strings on a typical electric, just forget these even exist. And if you do get one and realize I was right, I will pay shipping to my place. ;)

I've listened to other tunes of them Puscipher. They are playing nice music.

I counted 2 guitars and a bass in a lot of it. How can you tell it's a baritone?

I'm good like that.

Don't necessarily need a baritone, easy to accomplish with a pitch/whammy pedal. Simple, slightly elongated slapback delay and large room verb dialed to taste. It's not quite spaghetti western, more Depeche-y as noted above, but similar.

A lot of the Spaghetti Western stuff was done with delay followed by reverb, usually played on a Danelectro tic-tac or Fender Vass VI, often tuned up/restrung. Got that from a friend who did a lot of movie sound design back in the day.

After watching this live video it appears I need a Telecaster. I have a T style but it has hbs. Is that big metal box around the bridge pickup magical on the tele? Is it the tone wood or just another "one of those things" Leo did right?

I hear the FX you guys have mentioned in there too.

queued up to the tone:

ETA: Here's another from the same concert.

The bridge plate, saddles, and pickup bottom plate all contribute to the Tele sound. As he just said, get a proper Tele, and you will suddenly get "it".
