EEEEEEEE Tuning Sounds CRAZY!

[@peteplaysmusic]

Thanks for watching everybody! :) Listen to the song on Spotify: spoti.fi/3JuSpoK And check out the guitar here: bit.ly/3ZXkRH7

[@welern2liv815]

When I was a teen back in the 80s I used to get stoned and do crazy stuff like this. Tuned all 6 to G. Plays with your mind for a while as you do a pattern ascending across the strings but it's the same 3 notes, lol! Nice little ditty bro! Peace to you and yours.

[@knowone11111]

As a musician I appreciate how you managed to make something easy to play sound relatively complicated & difficult 🙏

[@shaunkellison1761]

I would have subbed if you wrote something in the key of B with this tuning. Standards have gotten high after 15+ years of YT, bro...

[@richdiston397]

Amazing. Just bought this on Itunes and it's now in my workout playlist. Thanks!

Well said

[@matthewbriggsguitar]

Soundgarden has a song called "Mind Riot" that's in all E as well, although its on a regular 6 string. Worth a listen if you want to hear anything else in this tuning. Its surprising how creative this kind of tuning can actually be.

[@MrOzzy15]

Mind Riot was the first thing I thought of when I saw this video's thumbnail! haha

The Day I Tired To Live is apparently in all E tuning as well

[@skullyairsoft80]

IIRC, New Last Jam by Satch is in all E as well

This puts me in mind of Let The Computer Decide by Paul Gilbert. It's played on a 7 string with the bottom three strings tuned to E in octaves.

[@peteplaysmusic]

Haha, nice! That sound like a very Paul Gilbert thing to do. The dude is amazing! :)

@@peteplaysmusic One of the necks on his doubleneck sig is just three strings all octaves of E. He's been doing that since the 80's.

This sounds great, I've always loved tuning in G and A# personally.

[@peteplaysmusic]

Thanks! :)

[@Vortexafternoon]

I would just end up playing massive barr chords! Love this tune.

[@drpibisback7680]

It'd actually be pretty hard to do standard barre chords in this tuning, all the intervals are really far apart - just the root and the fifth (a standard power chord, not even any thirds) requires a seven fret stretch, which is basically impossible.

[@2255223388]

@@drpibisback7680 A barre chord can have any intervals. I think you're confusing barre chords with triad chords

Man this gave me Gojira vibes!!!!!! (tunes guitar to all E's) name of the song? Death in Gminor hahaha

[@RohannvanRensburg]

Uncontroversially the thiccest octave chords. The reality is that 5ths are borderline "major" sounding, so total octaves really neutralizes that and it sounds really cool

[@Souchirouu]

Good song writing and the recording process is what makes an song heavy not your tuning. Yes, lower tuning makes it "more heavy" but in the context of a song your guitar will just get in the way of the bass and drums. It's not by accident that some of the heaviest songs by some of the biggest names in metal are just in E standard, Drop D or maybe one octave lower. It is something many guitars don't want to hear but if you can't write a heavy song in E standard then no amount of fancy pick-ups, expensive amps or gold plated guitar cables is going to make any real difference .

[@tommyponce2511]

Some sections of the osng have a huge Doom 1993 vibe, and I love it man, awesome track :D

[@doomslayer_ch4280]

This looks like a surprisingly fun tuning to play. No way I'm going to mess with my floyd rose to test it out though. Might have to break out the whole starcaster instead.

I've been having fun with minor add 9 tunings on an 8 string. Its basically the tuning the Opeth use for Ghost Reveries. But adapted for 8 string. Its a fun tuning.

[@WillmacLMCD]

I wonder what key the song is in...

[@coltonpugh9669]

Immediate subscription. No hesitation whatsoever after that display of brilliant creativity. Just so I understand this better, you're playing on an 8, tuned to 4 octaves in E. Would that mean that you have it split into two string per octave?

[@CaptainUndead3112]

I recommend AEAEAE tuning, maybe not that insane but i always had a guitar tuned like that before i got my 7-string.

I have the same guitar and feel like the bridge is a weee bit bright and thin sounding (though still decent for stock pups) but your song sounds nice and full. I know bass guitar makes the most difference on the low end, but still curious what you played through.

From this angle it looks like you could reach that one fret that you tap, with your fretting hand. The intro part is what I mean. Either way, sounds awesome dude , 🤘🤘🤘

I’m assuming this is Drop E tuning? I think it’s Fieldy in KORN always has had his bass in drop E tuning. That’s how he gets such a deep sound.

Ah yes, I remember this from Doom. It's EEEEEE1 M1. I myself messed around with EEEEEE tuning on an acoustic like 2-3 years ago and when I brought it up to another guitar player he looked at me like I was stupid. Some people just don't like to push beyond the normal and view anything outside the normal as lesser. Jokes on him, it was a fun tuning then and it still is now.
