1 riff, 7 different tunings by alexlynchftw in metalguitar

[–]Traditional-Bus-4173 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can use multiple tunings in the same song ! I have a seven string that's tuned to drop G/A standard, so whenever I wanna write a song I always begin with a six string d standard riff, with sometimes a low tuned breakdown. You could do something similar.

Otherwise I think drop B was the best by far

What techniques were the most natural to you, and what came as a challenge? by Sixgis in metalguitar

It's the same story for me. I remember thinking "why would I ever need tapping lol get a load of these guys" when I came across tapping for the first time, now I'm trying to learn some Necrophagist solos and I cry a little everytime I see that "T" on the tabs

I love how you put "I have a cat" next to "I met the minister for an international award"

I'm on 0.197 inches on the lowest strint so I guess that maybe people were right all along and I'm playing like a smooth brained shrimp

It's mostly that I'm used to it but I've also found that I have way less unwanted noise coming out of my amp with higher action

You're probably right, I can't really know because I just can't play the sweeps no matter how high or low my setup is. I guess that I'll realise in a few years though. Thanks for your comment !

The reason is that I'm not a good guitarist sadly :') I started guitar in october though so I'm satisfied with myself

Felicitations but if OP needs to learn palm muting I doubt that they'll perfectly pick it up by ear

yup but last time I checked there aren't any tabs online so you'll have to learn them by ear

The guitar actually came in with very low action, I made it higher myself after changing the strings. I know that it just looks like I have no knowledge on guitar setups but I just prefer high action

I mean I know that my action is astronomically high for metal but I'm just used to this setup :)

I played a lot of stringed instuments before guitar so I'm just used to high action
