  • Is the E string that was D before below the A string should sound like the higher E?

  • @epicslasher99 Same note, but different octave.

  • Isn't this the same as D A D F# A D except a whole step up?

  • @PatriotJones84 It is.

  • i broke my A string trying to tune to this

  • @johntuggle ok I got it, so the higher E ryt?

  • @Maafa1619 I've changed my mind. raising the tune-o-matic a bit and using thicker gauge strings (which probably impart a bit more neck relief without touching the truss rod) did the trick. Since I want to be able to fret notes with my fingers too, I'm not shimming the nut. That would put the action in square-neck Dobro territory.

  • @daveasc So the slide doesn't rattle on the frets, of course

    I not only raised my bridge, I'm going to shim the nut before all is said and done.

  • @iamthecodofhalo1 i hope your not a guy. running around with a broken g string

  • I tried this and my g string broke :(
