    Sounding great Shy Shēks! ☺️ Brotha, you got Eddie's style down to a tea and sista you sound very soulful and bluesy! You guys have the style down. Trust me, I know this style quick well and I wouldn't say this if I didn't actually mean it. Keep up the tunes. Hope y'all are performing and recording stuff. And really hope y'all write your own tunes as well. Nothing but love from me. - Jeffrey Paul Moran

    This tuning is pretty much 6 string plectrum banjo tuning which adds on F and Bb

    What strings and gauge are you using when your playing Kress’ tuning? Mine strings get pretty floppy when working with a low Bb string.

    • @nicolasruiz1107
      @nicolasruiz1107 4 роки тому

      Bb is at 85. The common baritone 80 is ok but the 85 is perfect.

      Hi i have standard guitars gibson and fenders not baritone scale If i want to tune in all Fifths which string gauge should I use? I have read That the Ernie Skinny Top Heavy Bottom 2215 That are0.52 to .0.10 work for NST New standard tuning which is CGDAEG but I want an all fifths tuning so the Kress tuning looks perfect but not sure which gauge of strings and if i need a baritone scale?

    Bravo, Signore DiDonna. It's so nice to hear the fullness of the voicings on a guitar tuned like you and Marty Grosz use. Excellent playing with great rhythm. I enjoyed it very much.
