james90 Posted October 12, 2017 Author Share Posted October 12, 2017 Did you try tuning it to D first? It will always be an E string unless you tune it to D... although I'm not sure which direction that's in Usually in K&T, we would have definitive proof what tuning the string is for, based on how many times it's wrapped around the machine head... but MB is proper clever, as he INTENTIONALLY hid the headstock in that picture to prevent spoilers. Damn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaicen Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Oh yes, floyd and sustainiac for sure I'm more into the DLX than the JH Drop-D string? Maybe that's why I'm not getting that Stockholm Syndrome sound since my E string is a literal E-string? Who's heading to the guitar show by the way? I will burn my Manson guitars if there is no MB announcement Best take some matches then.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james90 Posted October 13, 2017 Author Share Posted October 13, 2017 It's just the last bit of the solo that's a bit tricky. I suggest you do it. But what tuning would you use? C standard strings? If you don't want to bother setting up your guitar for that, maybe just play it the same way, but in E. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Dy56iQd6Jg What I WOULDN'T do is play it in C, but still tuned to standard (as some people seem to do.) You'd need the low C for it to sound right in that case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaicen Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Ah, right so it's in an odd tuning? If so we might skip it as it seems getting into DROP D is a problem so I imagine C is going to be out of the question. In truth I haven't even looked at it yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted October 13, 2017 Author Share Posted October 13, 2017 It's tuned two steps down, but in the video above, it's in standard. It would make most sense to play it like that if you don't want to change tuning or put on C standard strings Having said that, I think it sounds better in standard on acoustic for some reason.

james90 Posted October 14, 2017 Author Share Posted October 14, 2017 Are you taking requests? This one is in C standard, but you can easily play it in E. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DcHKOC64KnE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaicen Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Lolz, I wasn't planning a by request show! In fairness I didn't suggest QOTSA, though I dig the track. Logistically its a nightmare, I don't want to drag around a second guitar really, and I think a polyphonic pitch shift is not going to cut it. That Saud I do gig a Pod, so if I come across a cheap Variax it could work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't play many working men's clubs, not many left these days. Set list includes Foo's, Green Day, and Jimmy Eat World, so it's not out of place.

Many working men will cross their arms and nod their heads while Jaicen is playing 1999-2003 era Muse songs. One working man might even be fascinated enough to ask about Jaicen's setup. Because that's what we all really are interested in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was gigging the DSL40c, but I switched to the pod when I moved over to in ears. I couldn't hear the amp with it usually being on the floor, and the pod saves time in setup.

Working nans dancing on tables. Standard pub gig for Jaicen. Next year we should have another #details meet up and a proper "by request" session in the sound booths... you can teach me how to play some Hendrix songs on a guitar with real single coils. ...Assuming I actually play a guitar this time.
