This video discusses one way to arrange a song with both acoustic and distorted electric guitars into a coherent song. I’ve written an arrangement to cover the song Stone Tower Temple from Legend of Zelda Majora’s Mask. Included in this video is even a jam session demonstrating the original song that the cover is based off of with creative liberties taken.
