OT 21: DFD Giveth and DFD Taketh Away

I had a practice last night, spoke to the guitarist about the C# debacle, and he was firm with his stance about keeping the two songs where they are. He's a smart dude though, suggested stringing the Carvin with thicket strings to get some of the looseness out of then when they are tuned down, as w...

No, my singer isn't really a singer, he's a guitarist but filling the void until we find someone interested in doing this with us. Saying this, he drops songs a half note to help bring down the highs in the vocals. There are literally only two C# tuned songs and both could and should be D tuning. D...

Got that Lakland 44-60, and it's next level stuff. Pros and cons: -came dirty, I mananaged to scrub most of the stuff off the neck, but it hung in a store and the maple neck and head stock had dark blemishes where the foam on the hanger rubbed against. It is new-old stock, so par for the course. It ...

You have to appreciate professional musicians, the amount of bs and effort it takes to actually sound good in front of people is highly underrated. It's probably one of the hardest jobs for the least amount of pay.

If you’re changing tunings up and down during the set, a little pro-tip I got from a buddy is to always finish each tuning session by tuning up into the note. The strings tend to stay more taunt and hold their tuning better that way. So as you tune, go a little lower than the note you want, then re...

Thanks Dan! What's a pedal tuner do? You plug it in with the rest of your board/pedals, and it shows your tuning right on it. You can tap it to bypass it so it’s not on during songs, then tap it on and it should cut out the output from it and just let you tune in silence. It also won’t be picking u...

I love the fender Jazz bass. I’d grab one of those or a Music Man if I ever played again. I think it’s the fender mustang that has the P-bass body and headstock with the Jazz neck.
