Some more beautiful Fretless Classical Slide Guitar outside with the birds.

Tuned Open E in 72ET. EBEGsharp12thlowE.

72 Equal Temperament is a microtonal tuning that preserves our existing 12 equal tempered notes and adds, 12th, 6th and 1/4 tones. In cents, 16, 33, 50 cents either sharp or flat to our 12 notes. This helps to get very close to Just Intonation’s pure thirds, sixths and sevenths.

My basic melody notes are E F sharp 12th low, G 12th high, G sharp 12th low B, C sharp 12th low & D 12th high.

The chords are simply E,A,B major with a pure major third that’s a 12th low.

Simple.

Morning Musing.

Every time I get a solo gig, I have no clue what to play. Dirty Blues? American Primitive Instrumentals? Ambient Soundscapes?

Then I pull out The Beast. National M1 Tricone Baritone and arrange a new song I’ve been playing for a while to the slide and The Beast.

Truly, nothing else matters.

This Sunday for an afternoon of concert series featuring -Jylian -yours truly. Show starts at 2pm with Flying Crowbar. I hit the stage at 4pm but come down early and drink 🍺 and eat 🐷 . 🤘🏼
