little tune I'm working on, still a bit rough and jam-ish but thought this mixdown was kinda neat.

acoustic is tuned to open F.

maybe another version later if I figure out how the song goes. ;)

Hi IronSheep !
The main theme is awesome, really tasteful.
The part I don't like too much is from 1:10 to 1:28... Nothing wrong, just my personal tastes.. ;)

Ciao !

yeah, that's the part I have to figure out... got a little odd there.

thanks for the listen!
I liked the thing all the way through. Nice pickin.
Very Pretty, the F tuning sounds nice - how's that tuned  - lowest string sounds kinda tight - so I am guessing - FACFAC

it's pretty much just regular G open tuned down a step (heavy strings) - CFCFAC instead of DGDGBD
Wow  - 4 steps is huge - you must be using some majorly heavy strings for that drop in tuning.
As it sounds pretty bright to me - like there is some tension.

what gauge ?

What's it like at standard tuning ?

scratch that - just tuned down to it - it can sound bright - F is quite a bright key.
will leave that time to settle in tuning wise - interesting tuning
Just picked some flowers and put them in my hair to listen to that  ;D

Nice playing, nice track...a bit wayward near the end but very good none-the-less.

By the way, only joking about the flowers.....I don't have any hair....or very little left  ;D
heh flowers

I did the three tracks in one go each, left first (I think) playing along to it for the other two... so it got kinda wonky later on as I lost track of what I had been doing. didn't have a plan other than the main riff for the center track... so that's just improv meh stuff later.


tuning to F was accidental - I thought I was in G... then I checked the tuning before recording and was one step further down. makes sense since I was down in D with the heavier strings so I didn't damage the guitar - dropped to what I thought was G => F.

tension felt good that way though, so it stayed there. I think they're medium heavy strings but I put them on a long time ago - not entirely sure.
