Does that not make it like 100% harder to play songs on?? I mean all the frets would be different :confused:
(Is a standard tuning fanboy)

[QUOTE=88_Fingers_Joe]We sure do Cain. 'Cause we are also guitar virtuoso's.[/QUOTE]

:D **** straight.

Although one might think that practicing one's *** off on guitar is just another way of not having a life. But I would be inclined to disagree. :)

You should probobly get some higher guage string then.

[QUOTE=R. Blythe]You should probobly get some higher guage string then.[/QUOTE]

The thing that blows the most about guitar is by far intonation. It doesn't hold up with drastic changes in tuning, and that's what you need to play a lot of modern bands' songs. The biggest thing I don't get is why low tunings are always considered to be sooo heavy. Bands like Opeth do great in standard, and lots of others do too. Your distorted tones get a lot muddier and gainy-sounding because you have to increase it to get any sort of clarity or crunch.

[QUOTE=R. Blythe]You should probobly get some higher guage string then.[/QUOTE]

Why is that?? I just thought it was the sound and general feel of the guitar that was affected by the guage?? :confused: Not the actual notes themselves??

I find Drop-D works for heavy :D

Crispy Chicken meal. With a Coke. The fries were good today, too.

When u have like 10's on yur guitar and u put it in c the string are very loose and the sound isnt as good, and they are harder to handle.

If u have like 11's the downtuning is way easier to handle and better sounding.

[QUOTE=R. Blythe]Is it going extremely slow for anyone else?[/QUOTE]

Dude, f[COLOR=White]uck[/COLOR] you. It's good. I don't need people to tell me my own personal opinion is wrong.

Oh give me a break, I was voicing my opinion. Anyone who disagrees with you is therefore trying to tell you you're wrong and is trying to convert you? Or is it just me that is held to this standard?

It's just you, because you're black( :rolleyes: ). Give me a break, I like McDonalds, I went there, you already said you don't like it. I understand, but now I've eaten the food, it does no good to tell me how much McDonalds sucks. We get it. McDonalds sucks.

[QUOTE=AntiHero3314 ]I use 11's on my guitar for straight C tuning. It keeps a good, thick tone, even with the crappy amp that I have.[/QUOTE]
I've been using around 14's on mine lately.
I know a dude who uses strings with gauges under 10! :eek:
Loser! :lol:

:upset: Sorry Lunch, didn't mean to exclude you.
I'll explain:
A "[I]gauge[/I]" is very bassically technical jargon for the weight (not literal mass) of a guitar string, the heavier gauge a string is, the more durable it is, and the longer it lasts, it also gives some awesomely heavy results. On the downside, they can be a bastard on the fingers. :) (I think you can get up to about 18 gauge, before you start getting sore :lol: )

It's okay to eat it here and there. Hell, I know how nasty it is and I still go there sometimes.

[QUOTE=ArrestThisMan]It's okay to eat it here and there. Hell, I know how nasty it is and I still go there sometimes.[/QUOTE]

That's what I do. I'm smart enough to know that it's obviously unhealthy to eat their a lot.
