Playing “Microtonal Guitar” for the First Time…
LIKE this video if you’re excited for some Music stuff! (つ°ヮ°)つ ♪♬
Important Things Down Here ⤵
I’ve been playing electric guitar for over 10 years now, but recently I decided to get a microtonal guitar and play for the first time!
The microtonal guitar I got is an Eastwood High-Flyer Phase 4 guitar. It took a while for the guitar to ship since it was a pre-order guitar, but it was definitely worth the wait!
This video is basically my first reaction and first time playing a microtonal guitar. I didn’t watch any videos or do that much research prior to playing, so please go easy on me lol
Regardless, I’m really excited to learn how to play the microtonal guitar!
If there’s any useful advice or any other instruments you’d like to see me play, leave a comment letting me know ^-^

If you haven't heard of them King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard make some great music, and their albums KG, LW, and Flying Microtonal Banana all incorporate microtonal guitars. Really cool to see what seems to be a straight up production-level guitar with a microtonal neck

@TheBitterestBoogie 2 года назад

I noticed a few people already mentioned King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard already, but they are a great source for understanding and using a microtonal guitar. They tune their guitars to C# F# C# F# B E and write riffs in that tuning. It’s featured heavily on the albums Flying Microtonal Banana, K.G and L.W. They’re great musicians besides the microtonal stuff too, can’t recommend them enough!

@greatdude7279 2 года назад

Yeah King Gizzard are awesome however since I am from the balkans this kind of playing isn't that strange here :D However we tune our guitars into DADDGG that way we simulate Turkish Saz more since we have 2 chours (D, G) and we play like we would play Saz low strings for drone and high strings for melody.

@Log_rithms 2 года назад

The microtones make the most sense in a passing tone context. Trying to make chords is tricky but making a melody is where it shines. The different spaces between notes that you have access to makes things more spicy. Think of it like bends in a blues solo. Also, what you were playing for the MW2 theme is EXACTLY how microtones should be used. Inadvertently a perfect example!

@kyrpajyra_ 2 года назад

The guitar is pretty much a replica of the Univox Hi-Flyer Phase 4 (except with microtonal frets). It's not at all in anyway shape or form a replica, or even similar to the Kurt Cobain signature Jag-stang.

@BlueRoseShilloh 2 года назад

@WowDoodWuuut 2 года назад

looks more like a mosrite like Johnny Ramone would play than a jag stang.

@DevinLatulippe 2 года назад

To be fair I think he was just maybe making a joke. But he probably mentioned Nirvana because Kurt Cobain did use Univox Hi-Flyer’s a lot. But him showing a Jag-Stang doesn’t make much sense to me

here is some advice for writing micotonal music. when you are writing microtonal music dont think about chord progressions just pick one chord and play around it. if you want to hear an example look up the album flying microtonal banana by King Gizzard in most of there songs in this album used this method

@lucisforest7780 2 года назад

Microtonal notes don't make sense to me at all despite me studying music theory for years

@cow4741 2 года назад

Let’s take the 5th fret of your guitar on the E string, A, going up a fret (or a half step) would take you to A#, in the distance between the two notes there is 100 cents, which is just a measurement, like there is 100cm in a metre, this is the smallest possible interval (the difference between two notes) in western music (12 TET) going to other parts of the world there’s other intervals, such as the quarter tone, which would be 50 cent, so going from A (your 5th fret) would take you to A half sharp, to the untrained ear it sounds rough.

@MaxPower-js1sk 2 года назад

Check out the “Tone Poems” albums. Instruments played with slides and tone bars (like Dobro and pedal steel) can be played microtonally. I play Blues Dobro and I often go into microtonal country when I slide around the b3 and b7.

@leechild4655 2 года назад

Just playing you`re random fun noodling was sounding good enough to record and add stuff with it. Anyway, just because its a microtonal guitar, you can play it any way you want. Overall its a bit of an oddity, at least to the West. Distant countries and cultures employ those microtones in their approach to a musical scale. They can make it work only because they understand it and know how to use it correctly.
