Re: Everyone's worried about tone...

supertwangreverb - 02 Apr 2004 21:47:14

Well I'd rather worry about tone than open up a newspaper and worry
about this world. I've been pushing the Pyramids and I think they
are great strings. The reason I push them is because I thought
similar to many people on here. I was forced into trying them lol.
However, certain tweaks one can do to their rig to make the tone
change doesn't mean they will play any better. When it comes to
playing live, if your good enough all you really need is a guitar
with decent action and no fret buzz. Unfortunatly I'm a long way
from being that good so I get a kick out of "tone talk." This is a
101 course isn't it??
