Guitar Tuning Quotes

I do play the guitar, and I can sing, but just enough to carry a tune Picture Quote #1

I didn’t know that you were supposed to tune the guitar to an open chord, and I learned to play slide with a normal tuning. I think it’s a little more melodic that way and doesn’t sound so bluesy. Of course, if I could play like David Lindley or Ry Cooder, I’d be a happy man! Picture Quote #1

One of my favorites has always been ‘Swap Meet.’ One of the reasons why I like that is it’s a song that’s in a drop-D tuning, and of course, also being a guitar player, it’s one of the songs that I really like the riff on it Picture Quote #1

There was a guitar that my uncle owned and never learnt to play. He sold it to my dad, and when I heard ‘Layla’, that was the tune that really grabbed me. I said to my dad, ‘Wait, there’s a guitar, right?’ Picture Quote #1

When you’re doing a TV show, it’s not like you just shoot for six weeks and you’re in an editing room with all of your footage. It’s like a guitar or a car, you have to fine tune things. You stop doing what’s not working, you work on what is working and you add things that do work Picture Quote #1

When you play the 12-string guitar, you spend half your life tuning the instrument and the other half playing it out of tune Picture Quote #1

I’m not that fluid when it comes to scales and modes. I just pick up the guitar and play. It’s all about exploration: just tune the guitar any way you want and start playing Picture Quote #1

I had given up the guitar between 75 and 78. I completely lost interest. I was sick of hearing other guitar players and I was tired of my tunes Picture Quote #1

Rock stars should be able to tune their own guitars, apply their own eyeliner, and pick out their own leather pants Picture Quote #1

The first time I learned how to play, my guitar was out of tune. I didn’t know it; I just started writing songs Picture Quote #1

I’m not into that Keith Richard trip of having all those guitars in different tunings. I never liked the Rolling Stones much anyway Picture Quote #1

My favorite thing about guitar, and the thing that always drew me to it when I was first learning to play it, was those moments when you think you know what it might sound like, but you don’t, and then you hit it, and it’s a total surprise. You hear it with really fresh ears. Alternate tunings, for me, they give that back Picture Quote #1

Guitar comes more out of its limitations for me, like putting it in a weird tuning and then just go places Picture Quote #1

I learned to tune a guitar by ear. That method has served me pretty well Picture Quote #1

When you tune your guitar in a different way, it lends itself to a new way of looking at your songwriting Picture Quote #1

I used a baritone guitar with a very unusual tuning that became the body of the composition, while the classical guitar is on top of it with the main rhythm part Picture Quote #1
