oh and double drop D Greg Lake I believe in Father Christmas
wish they'd kept that rock vibe going and not allowed themselves to be shoehorned into britpop/landfill indie.
I really like the flabbiness with the G string sooooo low
now are u asking ‘Favourite alternate tuning’ or ‘Favourite alternative tuning’,
I ask because across the pond they use ‘alternate’ which would mead e.g. CDCDCD.
Just one of those Americanisms that I’ve had a mental ‘stutter’ over, quite annoying.
In fact there a tuition book called ‘Complete Alternate Tunings Guitar’ by Mark Hanson
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Complete-Alternate-Tunings-Guitar-Books/dp/0936799137/ref=la_B001KCNW7U_1_4?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1479654430&sr=1-4
Don’t know about electric guitar tuning but I only play in tunings - on acoustics.
I quite like ‘C’ derivative tunings - CGCGCE - hey thats (almost) an ‘ALTERNATE’ tuning.
For those who don’t know ‘standard’ tuning is derived from Lute tuning and is to facilitate playing in ALL the musical Keys - thats what ‘Classical’ music does best - states a simple melodic motive and repeat it in a different key with different instrumentation or variant thereof, thats it.
More traditional musics instruments tend to be ‘in tunings’ take the traditional harp in Ireland Scotland and Wales all had a verity of tunings for different musical (moods) forms.
oh - don’t mention DADGAD pleeeease
theres 4 cartoons that satire the types of hype around this 1 tuning.
when I gigged, the amount of folk that would ask me if I was tuned to THAT tuning , in fact some said I must have been - it's like thats the only alternative interval system.
oh, was'nt Davy Graham's dad scottish ?.
