    His touch, the dynamics, the nuance… it sounds like Bruce is singing the song. This is tremendous. It’s perfect. 10/10 only because you can’t be more perfect than perfect. Wow.

    For anyone interested in understanding it a little better: He posted on IG that it was in open E-tuning with the exception of the high b-string being tuned down to F#. That's how he gets that one particular harmonic. (No clue how he got that idea! Please correct me if I'm wrong). That should help people understand his left hand a little more. Your posts are amazing Nathaniel!

    • @Zeppelinbarnatra
      @Zeppelinbarnatra  2 роки тому +221

      Thanks David! You are correct. A big priority was getting the harmonics to ring out for as long as possible as they were mimicking the keyboard part of the song.
      However, with the B string being tuned down so low, it was nigh on impossible for it to stay in tune due to the gauge of the string. For this one, I actually got a tech at the store to put on a G string where the B would normally be and just tuned that to F#. Worked well but had intonation issues if you listen carefully you might be able to hear it.
