That synth-driven guitar sound—bold, aggressive, and totally different—had a huge impact on him as a young musician. In this video, we dive deep into that exact sound. Tim and I break down how Pete Townshend used a synth and guitar together to create one of the most iconic intros in rock history. I recreate the patch on my original ARP 2600, and Tim brings his firepower to the guitar as we perform the track, analyze the tone, and talk about why this sound was such a game-changer. This is more than a breakdown—it’s a tribute to a moment that marked how synthesizers would change the sound of rock music. ____________________________________ ABOUT ANTHONY Anthony's musical touch as both composer and performer is connected with some of the most influential creative minds over the last 40 years.
