    Just about have I Stay Away down by AIC. Took me some time to get between chords fast enough. Always wanted to learn this song. Good to move forward.

    None of my guitars will hold C# for very long. Even my locking Ibby's.
    I switched back to National acrobat. Trying to find some other C# tuning songs.
    These strings are floppin!

    It took me a minute. Gotta be really light with the fingers or get really heavy strings. The 6th string is the one I have the most issues with. I push it off the board a lot.

    Man, a lot of metal is C#. I just like how it sounds. But yeah, Black Sabbath is pretty much all C# and so is AIC.

    All mine guitars are holding it pretty good. My PRS is the one that give me the most grief can barely get it tuned, even with 5 springs. I wish I would have not got a tremolo.

    Yes! Lighter fingers made a heck of a differance. So used to E standard and pressing them thru the fretboard.

    I don't think I got a guitar that isn't down tuned now. Even my accoustics are all D#.

    I don't even have a tremolo on my Strat-type guitar. I avoid them like the plague. I've had Floyd Rose trems before and they stay in tune great as long as you don't want to change tuning or string gauge. I won't even touch a Strat trem without decking it.

    Well, Apparently i'm back to C# stuff today.
    I tried 3 times to fix a leaky toilet bowl seal between the tank and toilet only to have its gush|
    Gallons of water all 3 times. It was leaking like 3 drops before my ill attempts.

    So....Back to Bud light platinum and floppy string, Sabbath goodness.

    I'm trying not to think of the plumbers bill.

    :cheers:

    Toilets can be a pain in the ass. I just replaced the gasket on mine. Was running all the time. Driving me nuts.

    Working on C# myself and drinkng some fine bourbon. Took my pup out for a trail run this morning. She loves that. Been a good day. Time to play guitar, play record, and drink whiskey. John Lee Hooker live in Soledad Prison record just arrived. Been waiting to listen to show for a long time.

    I will never get a guitar again with one. I never use them and it's just more shit to deal with.

    I'm probably just gonna put a wood block in the PRS and call it done. Guitar plays great, but what's the point if she can't hold a tune?

    My CE 22 has a trem, holds tune tremendously.

    Oh, and what bourbon?
