Steel Strings is a collection of 150 meticulously recorded sound effects, capturing the raw, resonant, and percussive sounds of a Fender Jaguar guitar—played in ways that was never intended. Inspired by the concept of a prepared piano, the strings were manipulated and played using unconventional objects, including soft mallets, drumsticks, metal rods, wooden sticks, metal plates, screwdrivers, and more. The result is a diverse palette of sounds that bear little resemblance to a traditional guitar, instead offering an array of metallic scrapes, deep impacts, resonant overtones, and rhythmic rattles.
To achieve maximum sonic depth, the strings were extremely detuned, creating deep overtones and unique textures. The guitar pickups were bypassed entirely, with the instrument recorded acoustically using high-quality contact microphones: the Lom Audio Geofón and Zeppelin Design Labs Cortado MkIII. This approach captures every nuance of the strings’ raw mechanical vibrations, and the deep resonance of the guitar’s alder wood body.

There are many great independent sound effect libraries available these days. The main problem with having so many, is keeping track of them!
A Sound Effect is a great hub, and is one of the first places I visit to look for sounds by category or genre. I started coming here to see if I could find libraries that I knew I had heard, but forgot WHERE I had heard them.
And in the process discovered libraries I never would have found otherwise. Great work! Keep it up!
We're always looking for new sounds to mangle, so when A Sound Effect had a holiday sale, I tried them out.
The purchase experience is really smooth and quick, and delivery is almost instant.
I'll definitely come back to them again in the future!
A Sound Effect is a wonderful resource for indie sound effects libraries. On top of that, it has some of the finest sound design, film and game audio interviews!
I often need very specific types of sounds so I've become a big supporter of independent recorders.
Until now I've always had to go to their individual websites. Now I can find them all in one place.
And, Asbjoern is great to work with!
A Sound Effect is a well curated boutique sound effects shop and a great place to find industry interviews and learning resources.
