Member Comments about this Lesson
Discussions with our instructors are just one of the many benefits of becoming a member of JamPlay.i don't like any of your lessons really because the songs are on a 7 string
He is awesome to see live, this video is the first time I have ever been able to see his pick hand. Live he flies blazing speed and precision. Very talented band to say the least they are the real deal.
Booo! He plays them on a 7 so they should be taught on a 7. i never cease to be amazed...
I had a seven string Jeff Loomis signature had to get rid of it fretboards on any 7 string are insanely big and take a lot more skill and talent. Arpeggio's are increasingly more diffcult at higher speeds on a 7 too.
you should do one with a 6 string
awsome lesson
nevermind, just realised it's a 7 string guitar.
hiya, i'm confused at the start of scene 2 where you say that it starts at the open b string on the 1st fret. Don't you mean the open E string and the first fret being F ??
That "ROCKED" more Gravey please.
To play Mushroomhead's tunes (or any 7 string tune) on a six string, tune your bottom three strings down to the tuning of the bottom three of a 7 string: low E down to B, A down to E, and your D down to A. Leave your top three strings in standard tuning. You might need heavier guage strings on the bottom three to do this. Thanks to Dennis Hodges for the suggestion.
What tuning is this?
Gravy uses standard 7 string tuning (BEADGBE), but he is tuned down a half step (A#D#G#C#F#A#D#).
Never mind, looked it up.
What tuning is this in ?
Time to build that custom 7 string telecaster.
I know...JamPlay is an expensive habit.
*head bangs to scene 5*
