What is that guitar effect that former Seether guitarist Pat Callahan used? And how can I get it for my guitr?

I know that in most songs, Seether uses a combination of simple distorted guitar and clean guitar. However, if you listen to Driven Under, one of my faves, you’ll hear this very whiny effect in the background during one part- in the second pre-chorus, I believe. It is unique to Seether as far as I know, and has a whiny, high-gain quality to it that sounds almost violin-like, if you had a really tweaked-out violin.

For an even bettter sample, watch and listen to this AOL Music video of Seether in AOL Music’s studio. Pat is the guy with the green guitar, and he tests out the effect a bit after Shaun, the lead singer, tests the mic by saying “on-two one-two one-two…” Here’s a link http://music.aol.com/artist/seether/530636/main#
Go there and clikc the link that says “Watch the ‘Fine Again, Gasoline, Driven Under & Sympathetic’ (In-Studio) ”

I’m trying to get this effect for my own guitar, and am having the hardest time. Any help would be appreciated.

hes doing volume swells and has an echo/delay pedal on.Basically you can buy a volume pedal or you can just turn the knob on your guitar with your pinky as you pick.Some multi effects pedals have an auto swell.Thats for what he does right after the one-two one two thing.

For his clean parts and a few distorted parts hes using a chorus pedal.

And please dont take this as a rude comment, but none of those are unique to the band.Nirvana used chorus a lot, and red hot chili peppers used the swell to make a backwards sounding guitar in the song”give it away now” or whatever its called, I forget.
