I’m so nervous to tune my high e to a g, it’s probably gonna break Update: I’m okay, no strings were broken

You could've used a lighter gauge strings

[@douglasarthur2673]

Chris R I find 008’s work a treat with a very light/thin plec.

[@ianlund]

you go low, not high! get some 11's or 12's

[@emilyfolsener1411]

Mine broke 😍😍

[@kyrpajyra_]

@@ianlund Exactly the opposite, you should always get lighter gauge strings like 8's or something when tuning up. Using heavier strings like 11's would cause way more tension.

[@carlrs15]

Thank you thank you THANK YOU for doing a cover of this beautifully hypnotic song. Your covers in general are amazing, and I've discovered several of my favorite bands (Deerhunter, Speedy Ortiz - Women!) through your efforts. You are part of what makes the KZbin community so great. Anyways, I'm wondering if you're a fan of, and might consider covering, some songs by these bands. - Built to Spill - Modest Mouse - Cymbals Eat Guitars - Frightened Rabbit Again, just a request - simply keeping doing exactly what you're doing would be enough: : )

[@daniilzadorozhnyy8950]

The official tab says this song is in GABDEG which you can only tune down to w regular strings. That is a really unstable tuning though and wrecks the intonation. Very likely they mix and matched string sets to work better in that tuning, as they are know to do, the guitar with 6 high E strings for example

[@daniilzadorozhnyy8950]

now that I've thought about it here is a possible stringing: 5 (A -> G) 5 (A) 4 or 5 (A -> B or D -> B would both be reasonable tension) 4 (D) 3 or 4 (G -> E or D -> E bur something about having the 4th string here would feel weird) 2 (B -> G) So you probably wouldnt want to do that since I don't know what other songs that configuration would be usable for

[@richiericch8158]

I’m convinced that the people who can play this song don’t want others to learn it also; the tabs don’t look anything like what you’re actually playing.

[@jbrooks1348]

The alternate tuning has always kept me from playing this classic. Do you find the low E strained when tuned up to G? I'm assuming the D is tuned down to B, as well as the G to D, while the B goes up to E..again...that's a lot of tension. Great playing, thanks!

[@slackerVK]

There are no ups and downs, as well as no tension thing, it's always restringing with appropriate gauges, when it comes to SY.

[@jbrooks1348]

Ah, that makes sense, otherwise it would be a mess going back and forth. Guess I'll have to designate one of my lesser-played electrics for some SY jams;) Thanks for the reply!

[@lau2393]

[@sparkygroover]

So from standard tuning to GABDEG is that higher in pitch on all the strings or dropped tuning? I`m guessing tuned higher from the sound of the guitar. Great video btw :)))))

[@leanelson8375]

lol

[@ApexGamingTheClan]

sparkygroover it's down tuned

[@eata55]

sparkygroover lower pitches on the higher strings, keep the A string at A (standard) and raise the low E to G

[@claykeibler6463]

Morning Roof so you’re saying you drop the high e all the way down to G (which would be super floppy and loose) and take the low e up to G

[@anthonyjaswinski5732]

great cover of a great song. top ten albums of mine

[@Bluepillphil-d1w]

Fantastic. Do you tune the standard string to that tuning or do you re string the guitar with the nearest ? Seems so extreme to stretch the strings that far

It’s always random strings when it comes to SY.

i really enjoy your sonic youth covers, learning a lot from watching you play, can you please tell me that when you are going to an alternate tuning from standard tuning, do you still follow the natural string order? if not doesn't it hurt the alignment if you're going up, for example, to a G from an E? and what string gauges do you use?

[@reesepoole7151]

what kind of guitars can handle this tuning. I tried tuning on my fender strat. had to get all my strings replaced

[@sentientsonicmachines]

Honestly they used Jazzmasters for a reason. Different trem system from a strat which will pull out of tune with any string tension its not set up for. Jazzmasters tank any tuning switches like beasts.

[@richiericch8158]

Any guitar, the tuning is GABDEG, the only string that is getting tuned up is your low E, the rest of the strings are getting tuned down

[@frankferreiraalves5342]

Muito bom,cara . Parabéns !!!!!!!

[@ashrafimaduddin8162]

may I know what gauge are you using for your Jazzmaster to get all of these different tunings for sonic youth? I'm interested and your help would be much appreciated. Thanks

[@slackerVK]

Different gauges for different tunings. Just get to know how tension affects on the pitch. If you need 6th up to G, get thinner string. Down to C - thicker one. Need 3rd down to D, like in this case, get .24 or .26

[@ashrafimaduddin8162]
