The Scarecrow

"The Scarecrow" is the title track from AVANTASIA's 2008 concept album of the same name, a project led by Tobias Sammet of Edguy. AVANTASIA is a German supergroup metal opera featuring contributions from a rotating cast of vocalists and musicians across elaborate concept albums. For electric guitarists, the track offers an entry point into the dense, layered arrangements and melodic heavy metal riffs that define the project's ambitious sound.

  • AVANTASIA is a supergroup project, meaning the album features guest musicians alongside core members — expect complex, multi-layered guitar parts.
  • The name AVANTASIA blends 'Avalon' and 'fantasia,' reflecting the project's fantasy-themed, world-building concept across its albums.
  • Released in 2008, 'The Scarecrow' serves as both the album's title track and a centerpiece of its rock opera narrative structure.

Sascha Paeth uses the TS9 to tighten the front end of his Engl amps, cutting through Avantasia's dense orchestral arrangements with focused midrange push. This classic overdrive ensures rhythm guitars maintain clarity and definition in layered studio mixes without losing the articulate tone the symphonic metal sound demands.
