THE BEATLES (While My Guitar Gently Weeps) - Luca Stricagnoli | Reverse Slide Neck Guitar Cover

TOUR DATES:
www.lucastrica...
This video features my latest invention, called "Reverse Slide Neck". It's an add-on neck which can be fixed and removed in just a few seconds and opens new possibilities to guitar playing. Like all of my instruments, it has been built by Davide Serracini. In this video, I use it to perform "While My Guitar Gently Weeps", beautiful song by The Beatles, written by guitarist George Harrison.

There are a few people in our lifetimes who reinvent music as we know it. Luca is one of these very people who redefine, while leaving pieces of themselves in every note. Awesome job brother and much respect! Thank you for sharing your talent with the world! 🤙

[@AnAmericanComposer]

Did you change the key of the chorus because of the open tuning you're using? It actually works really well in the relative Major, I figured it would clash with the melody but it worked excellently. What tuning are you using on the guitar, anyway?

[@seanoglynch2405]

I thought there was a key change in the original song from Am to A

[@AnAmericanComposer]

@@seanoglynch2405 You're right. He does this version in B minor, which should have meant that the chorus is in B Major, but he chose instead to go to the relative D Major.

[@lijothomas8398]

Good spot my friend ! So he's modified the melody to match the new key of D Major rather than the original notes that would be in B major. Else would've clashed for sure.

[@rhabdob3895]

😕

[@ShayerSUtsho]

Took a while to analyse the tuning but here it is: D A D F# A B (from thickest to thinnest) On the main 6 string at least. I've made rough estimates of the tuning of the 4 lightest strings on the 7 string reverse Hawaiian section: X X X B E G A# (from thickest to thinnest) He never played the other 3 strings, so I've got nothing to work with.

[@ThomOlausson]

Man, this dude can really play, just playing this song made my guitar cry hysterically!

[@darksha1]

Here's why both my guitar and I are "gently" weeping: Been playing guitar for ~24 yrs now, I discovered fingerstyle guitar about 10 years ago and have been playing nothing but fingerstyle arrangements ever since. I've discovered that not all arrangements are created equal, many kinda get the gist but just don't quite sound right (missing notes, odd timing, etc., etc.). Luca's arrangements are probably my favorite of any others out there for any piece. For a long time I've been hunting for a faithful, not overdone/not over-flashy, and beautiful arrangement for While My Guitar Gently Weeps... Hoping this whole time Luca would do an arrangement because none of the others I've found quite do it justice... Fast forward several years and he actually does an arrangement for it, and it's BEAUTIFUL! but there's two problems: 1) He doesn't sell the sheet music on his site for the song. Not a complete show-stopper since his videos showcase the guitar and what his fingers are doing, i.e. with enough time (like friggin' tons, but still) it could be figured out eventually by watching closely and listening... and s!&#loads of practice... but seriously dude, if you read this and put the tabs up on your site I will be the first to buy it!! 2) and this is the real kicker... he just up and invents a completely new, one-of-a-kind, 7-string reverse slide instrument... oh and btw it has a two-level bridge/nut combo so that 3 of the 7 strings contact the slide but the other 4 don't... oh yeah and it's commissioned by a luthier I couldn't possibly afford to buy a one-off build from who also happens to be based in Italy... Why you gotta go breakin' my heart, Luca? Joking aside, I love it, I'm just jealous and wish I had the equipment to learn it the same way you wrote/arranged it. P.S. Luca, if you see this, PLEEEAASSE do an arrangement of MJ's "Billie Jean"!!! I would love to see your take on it!
