diiv - skin game (guitar cover)

my workplace hasn't enforced a stay at home thing yet so I've still been busy as heck but I found some time to learn and record 'skin game'. This was one of the hardest ones to learn and record so far. tuning is dadfsharpbe, tabs to come soon!

hi, my name is darius and i'm a musician based in singapore. i love guitars, effects pedals, and staring blankly at my shoes. i'm trying to get a grip on life but the only thing i know how to grip on to is the tremolo bar on my jazzmaster, so here I am making videos on youtube of me doing that.

Glad to have found this as I was looking for the tuning on this one, and it looks like standard drop D ( DADGAD ) but you listed DADF#BE. What is this called? Btw - I have a Sonic Blue Squier Vintage Modified Jazzmaster and it's one of my favorite guitars in my collection

[@marcocarranza5857]

[@greenvelvet]

SOunds Dead on! Well done!
Do you have a trick on figuring out tunings?
I never could understand how people can do that.
Any help is appreciated .

[@dariusoon]

I just listen to it over and over again, playing it at half speed, watch some live footage etc. It's quite a painstaking process! haha

[@greenvelvet]

@@dariusoon
god bless you for doing it man.
you're bringing a lot of joy to music lovers and guitar players all over the world.
Rock on 😎🤘❤️

[@dariusoon]

@@greenvelvet Thank you for listening!

[@voxfender90]

Did you swap out the bridge on your jazzmaster?

[@dariusoon]

Yeap, that's a Staytrem bridge! Unfortunately can't get them anymore if you're outside the UK, like I am.

[@stevenc5526]

I have a Staytrem bridge on my Jaguar. Highly highly recommended.

[@ChatRecs]

perfect performance, but why do you play it in that tuning if cole plays it in standard tuning and it's a simple song to play?

[@dariusoon]

Hi! That's cos I'm playing parts from both guitarists!

[@charlesxavier840]

This is great! Tuning?

[@dariusoon]

DADF#BE!
