Thurston stated that one of the reasons he started using Jazzmasters is because they would use a guitar per tuning, and good Jazzmasters were dirt cheap in the 80’s

Not to mention how many swaps they had to do from broken strings. I saw them in the early 90's and I swear (but not certain) that Thurston just had one string left unbroken on his guitar by the end of one of the songs.

@standinsilence3 жыл бұрын
Youre probably gonna have to give the guitar a whole new setup to properly use this tuning. Dont think you can just retune it since this tuning is so far away from regular tuning.

This may appear as a really dumb question. But how do I tune my guitar to F#F#F#F#EB? I feel like my strings will snap if I push them any further. Should I be changing my strings to a higher/lower gauge or should I should I be putting a low E string on my A string and so on for the rest of my strings?

Maybe the vocals, but I always hate when others are too critical of vocals so I guess I should just try to enjoy the stylization. Sometimes it just feels a little overdone and cheesy. But only sometimes. This song is one I like though.
