“Ruatalanka” A Finnish word meaning instrumental rock in general. A distinct style of playing it that has developed in Finland over the years. The melodies tend to be in minor keys and melancholic, based on folk tunes and schlager songs. The essential hallmark of rautalanka sound is a strong lead guitar with single coil pickups and tape echo guitar effect (in contrast to the reverb style spring echo used in surf music). Genuine tape echo devices are used often.
