Stretching New Strings

Nothing to see or hear, really, just stretching new guitar strings on my 1965 Daphne Blue Fender Stratocaster.

What are some of the settings on your pedals? I have a voodoo bass myself playing thru a clean twin and I've still yet to dial that thing in right...

I used to use a lot more gain, less volume, but have recently kept the gain at around 12 O'Clock, with Output at 2 O'Clock or more. This brings a little more natural tone out. The tone knob you use to try and match the unprocessed tone with. I hope this helps!

this is sweet! what type of amp, settings and pedals are you using? i love this tone!

I'm using Roger Mayer pedals:

Guitar>Stone Fuzz>Vision Wah>Octavia>Voodoo Bass>Voodoo Vibe>2 Fender Blues Junior Amps

Amp settings:

Reverb: 5 Master: 12 Middle: 12

Bass: 10 Treble: 4 Volume: 5

Best what you play on Youtube! Definitely.

You should stretching strings like that every day :) You express your emotion, that's it, that's the point.

Salute!

Hey, just wondering. I had such a painful time when I played with my new strings. I couldn't find the grip on it....Has someone a similar problem at the beginning??

i didn't know for sure if strings got better if "stretched" them like you did, until now.
