Time to map out a 6er's fretboard patters so I can groove when I try them out.

Anybody tune a 6 string guitar BEADGC? Isn't it more logical? I could be wrong.

Wouldn't that just make it a Baritone?

eadgbe is easier for chords and just playing in general tho, im tempted to tune my 6 string like that

Guitars are crazy, between drop d people and the EADGBE tuning.....

It would affect chords I suppose. You'd have to find a new way of playing them. Basically, from the little guitar I know, and all the chords, I wouldn't be able to transfer it across to that tuning. Maybe it would be better for lead players though? Wouldn't it make scales easier to play without the different tuning from the G-B strings, unlike the first four?

I guess it might. But then this might not be the right forum for that kind of question, cos I for one know absolutely nothing about guitars, not counting that which overlaps onto bass...

Crap, I didn't get my NIN tickets during the presale.
I'll need to wait until Friday for the official sale. :(

No, you won't be able to play half of the chords so easy as they are now..

For example: the open chords, barree, ska/reggea chords..
And ofcourse: scales.. All different :thumb:

EADGBE is good..

Yeah...

There was actually no point in that....... I don't like closed windows.

You haven't lived till you've snorted coke off a Japanese hooker's nipple.

That's so great!!!!!

I had some bubble gum that was wrapped in paper so that it looked like a cigarette and it came in like........ a cigarette box.

Anyways I was changing into my drumline uniform at our competition, and they fell out of my pocket for everyone to see. Some adults just gave me a dirty look and walked away.

Everyone post in the draw a bass thread.

Lately my head's swimming with ideas for threads. I'm saving them for when the forums get slow, though.

I think you got owned... you're the one that snorted sugar. :lol:

Ahh fu[U]c[/U] k.....the article is quite long...welll the point is that happiness is just something that shouldn't be pursued. :amaze:

I once tried coke....didn't really like....got all excited and stuff....I'd much rather keep smoking pot....but maybe I shouldn't do that either.....

[QUOTE=Spaceman Spiff]I think you got owned... you're the one that snorted sugar. :lol:[/QUOTE]
it wasnt bad, it didnt burn as much as i thought it was going to

I dont really like drugs.

Never tried them, never will. I just quite honestly don't see the point.

But if that's your style, more power to you.
