About Tom Morello

Tom Morello revolutionized rock guitar with his DJ-inspired techniques and unconventional approach. As the guitarist for Rage Against the Machine and Audioslave, he created sounds that seemed impossible for a guitar to make.

His arsenal of techniques includes toggle-switch killswitch effects, feedback manipulation, scratching with the pick, and creative use of the whammy pedal. Tracks like "Killing in the Name," "Bulls on Parade," and "Cochise" showcase his innovative style.

Despite his experimental approach, Morello's gear is surprisingly simple. The Tortex picks provide the durability and consistency needed for his aggressive playing style and unconventional techniques.
