Thanks! You should try it sometime!

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!

I'm glad you enjoyed it. I enjoyed making it too!

Late ☺

Sounds like Phrygian to me too. Songs like this and other instrumental songs they have done lead me to think they could do a tour like Satriani or Buckethead with just chop-heavy instrumentals.

Yes, that would be great! I did an analysis of "Onset" too. ua-cam.com/video/e4YO4ALGURw/v-deo.html

Thanks!

It was pretty hot! I had to make a hat for myself with a handkerchief and a piece of paper. Thanks for your comment!

Yes, I agree! Thanks for your comment!

Glad you enjoyed it!

I like it

Glad you enjoyed it!

You're welcome! Glad you got something out of it!

Thank you!

You're welcome! It took me a while to figure that part out!

Yes, that's right. That's the same number of beats, but I went with 10/8 so I could get groups of 3, 3, 2, 2.

@@shawngraham4155 Ahh, ok Thankee for explaining it. It had me confoozled there for a second.

You are welcome. I'm glad you got something out of it!

What impresses me the most about them is that they have a very wide range of musical styles. And yet she remains a Band Maid. Always...

I'm thinking I would like to do an analysis of "Onset."

Thanks!

Hi George. Yes, you are correct to be wary of this process. Getting the lose parts of the string to lay down is important. You can also detach them and make it worse if you are not careful. As I'm sure you know, once it gets too far removed, it is unlikely you can save the string from ultimately breaking. I would start with very light pressure and slowly increase to se how the string reacts. Maybe not wrapping it around the string initially will help you to see what is going on more easily. Another important factor to consider is humidity. I made this video in a dry climate. If I am doing this in a more humid climate there is a tendency for the string material to be a bit more sticky or gummy. Then too much pressure causes the sandpaper to remove too much and damage the string. Since I've made this video, I decided that string maintenance should be done often. If I play for 3 hours in a situation where my hand will be perspiring, I find it a good idea to apply oil before I play and then again afterward. I have even oiled the strings lightly between sets. My understanding is that moisture will cause the strings to start the slow process of unravelling. The oil removes that and keep new moisture from getting in the string. I'd be interested to hear your observations on this topic. I find almost no information on how to maintain gut strings on the web.

@@shawngraham4155 Thanks so much Shawn, this really is useful and too right there is not enough info on the web on the this topic and there really should be! Also one thing I've been wondering is what oil to get/use. I've seen gut string oil for sale by both pirastro and Upton bass but I've also seen people on the web say they use olive or baby oil etc etc. What's your take on oil's and would you recommend the ones sold by the string manufacturers?

I use olive oil routinely because of it's availability and also because it lubricates the strings well. I also have some walnut oil that seems better for tacking down loose ends when the strings get a little frayed. I've never tried the other product available. I was under the impression that a nut oil would be good and since baby oil is more like a mineral oil so I have never tried it.

If I have a gig where my hands will be sweaty, I might do it before and then again after the gig. My observation is that there is not an upper limit on how often it can be done, but there is a lower limit. If I don't do it often enough, unraveling can occur. I've never used almond oil, but I have used walnut oil. My observation is that olive oil is good for lubricating the strings, but the walnut oil does better for binding the string together especially if there is any unravelling. Since I made the video I have been doing more frequent oil applications and less sanding. That's working pretty well.

@@shawngraham4155 Thanks for the answer!

I've never done this on violin strings. I would cautiously approach doing this as the thin strings may cut easily. Let me know if you try it!

No, you do not need to oil them. I used Pirastro Eudoxa for years with no problem. Here's a link to Pirastro's recommended maintenance: www.pirastro.com/public_pirastro/pages/en/Maintenance/
