thank you. I have a show tonight and my guitar was out of tune. Since I can't afford a tuner at this time, I'll always watch this vid to check in case my guitar is out of tune.
hm i wouldnt say its "the" slash tuning but he used it almost always in guns n roses in slashs snakepit and velvet relvolver he uses sometimes the standart tuning and drop d or open g (for the slide things) :)
I am a little curious on the Eb tuning. can someone tell me why guitarist tune down a half step when they could just play a fret lower. i know the open strings would be different but just ignore all that :P
@jhat25 good question ...the tuning is used for a couple of reasons imo the main one being its easier to bend so its popular in blues another is the deeper somewhat darker tone
because its easier bending the strings cause wen u tune them on the Eb tuning its slackening the strings and is also used to match the singing. Jimi Hendrix used it all the time cause he wasent the best singer but the best guitarist :)
actually a while back I broke my d string from tuning it down. It's because I was outside and the sun had been on it, is my guess. I can't figure out why but it was strange. And I'm not new to guitar, I've been playing 7 years.
Maybe there's a kid out there playing on a guitar that he worked his ass of to buy and can't afford a tuner so he's going off of this to tune himself. So instead of being a douchebag and spending his time sucking dick like you, he's trying to be productive.
This is a really good range. Slayer, Kiss, Motorhead, Hawkwind, Budgie, and some Black Sabbath songs are tuned to this key. It's just enough darkness.
Idk how others feel about this, but i think disortion makes it easier to tune. Makes it easier to hear vibrations that aren't supposed to be there when the guitar is properly tuned. But as i said, i dunno about others.
I recommend you fix your innotation, my strings used to do that and I was confused and thought they were old, but they were fine just the innotation was messed up, just look it up on youtube. [The major ringing on your E will be fixed :)]
i recommend you go to thicker strings and then fix your intonation. try d-adario 9.5's if you don't like 10's they sound better than most cheep brands. crisper and heaver sounding. i like the daft punk cover stuff. sounds good.

no, i hear wavering in the video. If it was tuned properly it shouldn't waver, right?
generation666 3 years ago
no, even if it's not tuned properly you shouldn't hear waver, not if it's just one string... if he was playing a chord then yes.
Les0Paul 3 years ago
well then he needs new strings or something

yeah, his strings are crap... if the string wavers on it's own then its old or just is plain crap, try heavier ones.
