Ting Ho Dung Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 I'm with Dragan. I have (had) guitars tuned to different keys so I can play the standard "E" chords and not have the learning curve. The one exception was one tuned to open G. That was weird. Did you sell that guitar? Was it the white Daytona? If you are asking about the guitar I tune to open G then no, I'll never sell that one. It's my acoustic Melancon one off. But I did sell the "white" Daytona to a fellow board member. By the way, my open G tuning is DBDGBD. It's really pretty on an acoustic.
dragan Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 G tunning is what made the Rolling Stones . I wonder if Keith can play in any other tunning ? I keep my duolian in G.
zorrow Posted December 11, 2013 Author Posted December 11, 2013 Ha!BmBm!? No way! With B, D, E, G and A in the Bm scale, you get pedal-friendly open notes in every string belonging to the key! OK, wait a minute... you're kidding and I didn't get it, right? :-)
cloakerz Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 i had to play a jazz tune written in Cb, one of the stupidest things i ever saw.
Tres Aardvarks Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 As someone who grew up playing low brass, almost every piece we saw was in a flat key. People got bitchy when we'd have a piece in G, and riots would break out if you had any more sharps than that(like D, OMG)! Playing bass I never cared. Now that I'm playing jazzier stuff on geeeetar and having to learn more chords, certain keys will give me fits
HamerHokie Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 I love playing in C#m, as it works really nicely with bluesier stuff.
kizanski Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 Isn't Monkey Man in C#?I don't know, but "Day of the Eagle" is.
zorrow Posted December 11, 2013 Author Posted December 11, 2013 Isn't Monkey Man in C#?I don't know, but "Day of the Eagle" is....as well as my brother's "Rock in C#" -for computer programming nerds out here, it is indeed related to .NET/C# programming, and the voice over in the middle section is Anders Hersberg's himself:https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/8033493/pastelix-csharp.mp3
Jackass Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 I meant to say ha to a quote, but I fucked up. If your talking about Bm key, I just like playing and writing in that key.Bm
Nathan of Brainfertilizer Fame Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 "Queen of Spades" by Styx is in C#m.Make of that what you will.
