![]() This is mainly noticable on the SG, because its body is a lot lighter than the Les Paul. There are no wires leading up to the neck, which was the case in the past with other guitar that had a similar tuningsystem. Therefore, no holes will be in your guitar after removing the Min-Etune. Very useful.įrom what I have been told, you can remove the whole thing rather easily. Since every song basically meant I needed to tune the guitar, I could do so in a heartbeat. I brought my Gibson Les Paul, and I filled that user-bank with all kinds of the funky tunings that John Rzeznik uses. Recently, a friend asked me along to do a brief gig, during which we played a lot of Goo Goo Dolls songs. I like the fact that you have a complete bank to fill with your own tunings. I will get into this lack of choice later on. But I just try to make the most out of it, since I couldn't buy the guitars without the system to begin with. I view the Min-Etune as a comfort feature, and I use it accordingly. And frankly, I'd much rather strum all the strings and let the Min-ETune system do it for me when I have to go from Standard-E to open-G or DADGAD. Therefore, I am not the best when it comes to tuning. I always relied on a Chromatic Boss pedal for tuning, so I am naturally not great at tuning guitars quickly on the ear alone. Bear in mind, I'm not a professional musician or super skilled. Now, I don't need to have as many guitars.Īs I said before, the Min-Etune allows me to have one guitar and I can play all night or day on it. For instance, Led Zeppelin's Kashmir was always quite difficult for me to do, because I didn't have three guitars. I am more prone to search for songs in certain tunings, versus before when I was more restricted. Now, I am more into alternate tunings then ever. I have always been a massive fan of slide-tunings like open-G and open-E, and I'd have one guitar tuned to that tuning, whilst my main guitar (Strat) was tuned to a standard-E tuning. Therefore, I couldn't play certain songs anymore. Before I bought my Gibsons, I only had a single Fender Stratocaster at one point, thanks to another Fender getting destroyed at a gig. If personally found it opened up options for me to do a lot more songs, because I don't need to have multiple guitars. Min-Etune makes life a lot easier when it comes to alternate tunings. My Gibson guitars are both Standards from this year, so they both have Min-Etune.which I'd like to discuss here. Needless to say, I am very happy with what I got. I thought to myself, "I don't know what Gibson is turning towards, but I need to get my les Paul right here and now." I dislike all the extra bells and whistles of the 2015 guitars, so I made a decision to get the Les Paul (Heritage Cherry Sunburst), as well. Soon after I bought my SG, I started to see the line-up of 2015, and I hated it. Awesome guitar, that just fit me like a glove. I will briefly talk about my Gibson guitars, and then I will into the Min-Etune system.įirst, I bought the briljant SG in the classic Heritage Cherry finish. ![]() This is my very first thread, aside from my introduction. This automatic tuner is as accurate as your musically trained senses and will not fail to charm.I just joined the Gibson forum a few days ago and my English sucks, so bear with me.
