It, the string that is, does continue on to tune up to the proper pitch? If it doesn’t, is there a manual way to adjust what the on board computer considers the correct pitch? I’d really like to hear back from you on this post!

Thanx man!

My only complaint is that sometimes the A string doesn’t tune up as fast as the rest.

This stands true for most technology these days. I will try to keep up with the latest updates for this one and maybe by then, I’ll have picked one up! As you know, the 1st generation stuff is always more expensive then if you wait a while for all the hype to die down.

Keep on Jammin’

If I tune the guitar, and then while playing a song I realize that a single string is out even a little bit, my attention is drawn to that string during the whole tune! I know, I know it’s seems trivial to some, but to me it’s the difference between a perfect song and a bad one.

It’s like for some musicians when people are talking when you are playing, it drives us NUTZ! To this day I have this problem when playing. I guess I just take playing too seriously. I am just pouring my heart and soul out to the audience and all I want is a little respect I guess. It is a question that I ask most professional players when I meet them. Where do you stand on this one?

When I play live, I’m normally doing it solo. I find that every little mistake makes the educated listener take notice. These are the ones in the audience who I am interested in the most, truth be told. I love to challenge the audience to pick me apart and tell me what’s wrong with my interpretation of a song. Some people who play that are in attendance, will offer me suggestions on how to approach a song in a different way. This I find is fascinating because I will learn how other musicians
are thinking, and this to me is the greatest thing about playing in front of people, musicians or non-musicians!

Hey Dave, do you play alone/solo on stage? If you do, then you may understand what I mean here. I also use multiple tunings in my sets and I’d love to have something like this in my arsenal. The only real draw back with using this technology is … that I use an acoustic mostly!

I’d never ever have one of these things installed on one of my acoustics(unless I had more dollars the sence).

It’s in my understanding that most of the sound that is generated, on an acoustic comes from the top plate of the guitar. That’s why you’ll see manufactures place the controls on the side of your acoustic guitar. Anything that is attached to the top plate, stops the natural vibrations/sound of it. Basically it’s like the sound board of a piano. If you have a crack or something touching it, it stops the vibrations/resonance of the guitar. So in this instance, you and your audience won’t get natural sound that the guitar was made for.

I LOVE your comment and I hope that you keep coming back to generate stimulating conversation!

Keep on Jammin’ there Dave!
