Dub-T-123 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 This is really cool. I was just watching one of this guys videos the other day after listening to Flying Microtonal Banana by King Gizzard which is pretty badass. Kinda interested in it now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelly campbell Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 I agree it is interesting not sure I totally understand the whole harmonics thing but it is interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfpup Posted April 2, 2017 Author Share Posted April 2, 2017 I agree it is interesting not sure I totally understand the whole harmonics thing but it is interesting. Fixed frets are always a compromise. Some of the wavy fret guitars supposedly fix this problem. I notice it mostly when playing open chords. This seems a pretty simple solution. Though I don't know where you find the stick on fret wire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Searcy Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 The only guitar that solves all fret intonation issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rct Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 It would be a very interesting idea if humans had strobe tuners for heads. But we don't. rct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we don't. rct Yeah, our ears are very used to the slight compromises contained in the equal temperament. But, man, those perfectly intoned old school intervals sound so sweet.

The Oldlaws will have juicy sweet three part vocals that I will gladly arrange. rct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RowdyMoon Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Interesting..........yes!.........however, does this mean that anything, recorded or otherwise up until 2017 must now be burned and deemed unfit for human ears ? ...perhaps we have a tendency to overthink things.

merciful-evans Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 I learned about this when I joined the Fiddle Forum (I was learning violin). In Vinyl Frontiers, the jazz band I played in last year, the trumpet player told me about how early trumpet players carried around a kit of tubes to modify the trumpet when playing in different keys. It was for this reason. It seems weird but no fretted instrument plays in tune in all keys. Same goes for keyboards, though an electric keyboard could be made to intonate properly. Guitars are good enough for rock n roll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can usually sing a harmony once I hear it. Occasionally I can even whip one up on my own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
