At 1:35 he's talking about "burying" the strings? I don't really understand what he's talking about there, could some explain please?

[hilldk11]

I believe he says he "varies" the string brands.

[corban10101]

theres nothing geeky about guitar lol

[02x9]

I've always thought the guitar was the hip trendy instrument to play(IE Chick Magnet)

[TheDudeFrom0Z]

@Brettal0 yeah, sorry my comment was phased very poorly. i meant to say my maton doesnt like martins, however it plays well with elixirs and daddrios.

[Brettal0]

@TheDudeFrom0Z I believe that Maton strings all it's gutairs with Elixirs in the factory in Melbourne.

[whereverthere]

Dip 'em in Adamantium if you want real long life

[TheDudeFrom0Z]

its true my maton doesnt like martins, elixirs and daddrios

[Ackoustic]

Man you know he knows alot about strings when he's able to look at them and tell what brand they are!

Tommy changes his strings every concert? I haven't changed mine in months...

[Strifus]

@bejerama If he says the guitar gets to choose the guitar gets to choose.

[TheDudeFrom0Z]

@bejerama all strings are different, and the effects on the guitar are different with different strings. for example d addrios vs some bad quality ones. the guitar plays differently with different strings. therefore the guitar does change with the strings, yes also you get used to the strings but there is a certain quality to the sound, that you ascertain over time.

you do not really have the knowledge or experience to dispute what the best guitar player in the world has to say.
