Its Been Awhile (Hey There)

[scratchy]

that guitar had me from the get go! blown away by that sound. my kind of guitar!

[AndyR]

For me, a more practical option would be to get a VG-99 or GR-55. Then I could instantly switch between different tunings electronically without actually retuning my guitar. Have you ever tried that?

Hi 64

yes, I've tried it sometimes with my VG-99, but it's FUNDAMENTAL listening, when playing, with absolutlely *closed* headphones, elsewhere you'll listen both the open tuning AND the normal one, coming directly from your guitar strings...and it's a mess, impossible to play that way. Same problems with an acoustic Variax 600 guitar I had for some years: it had "inside" its computer several open tunings, but again, no way to play without closed headphones.

Apart from that, this is really a good song, Bluesberry! I too have actually a Seagull, and your has a great sound!

Yep, I found the same thing with my electric Variaxes - did the job very well, but you either need the amp/speakers above "domestic" level or you need to be listening (LOUD!) with closed headphones. Your brain just cope with it
