Hey guys How's it going?
So I need your help on this one.
So here's the thing:
I have a 7-string Harley Benton (extremely cheap, all that I could afford) and although it was very cheap I kind of love the sound and it's really comfortable (it looks like an RG to be honest) and I have it tuned in:
B E A D G B E
Which is the standard tuning for the 7-string (I guess), so anyways... So since I compose some stuff to help my guitar player (since I'm drummer) I thought that I should try and give it a different tuning approach since my guitar player plays on a 6-string and has it tuned in this dropped approach:
B F B E G C
So I was thinking if I could take this tuning to my guitar but in this way:
G B F B E G C
That way I could compose some stuff this with the 6-string approach on the six strings and tune the 7th string to G. I believe that's how the guys from Reign The Absolute have their guitar tuned on "what makes this flower grow".
And since I'm going to try this tuning on my 7-string I wanted to ask you guys if it is possible to use a bass guitar string to "emulate" the sound of a G string? should I do something else?
So I hope to hear from you guys soon![Wink ;) ;)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
