Guest Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 So this is a quick little finger picked guitar riff I wrote in a rather odd tuning. This song sounds really beautiful when played on an acoustic, this tuning really brings out a deep mellow mandolin sound. I had a lot of fun playing around with this on my 12 string. This is pretty damn hard to play, so if your good enough at finger picking, give it a go and see if you cant write something out of it.Key:=> is a slide.E–-5----------3---------1---------0----------------C-------2---------2---------2---------0-------------G---------------------------------------------------- **X2**C–-0------0---0-----0---0-----0---0-----0---------A----------------------------------------------------C----------------------------------------------------E------------0---------------------3--------------------C---5-----------0-------2-----------------0-------------G-------0-----------0-------0--------------------------- **X2**C–-----------------------------------------------------A---3------3------------2------2------2------2=>3-----C-------------------------------------------------------Edit: Well, I just recorded it for you guys. I also strummed out each string so you can tune to this. This was played on my 12 string acoustic, but no diff than on a 6 string. At the end, I play it slower for those who want to play along.[http://www.freemmorpgmaker.com/files/imagehost/pics/dd227b2f0b4352e7db6b080f29a421a5.rar](http://www.freemmorpgmaker.com/files/imagehost/pics/dd227b2f0b4352e7db6b080f29a421a5.rar) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synectics Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Holy hell, where did that tuning come from?! XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 It was used by Jimmy Page for a song of his never released to album called Bron-Yr-Aur. Its an instrumental solo (that I also know how to play) which kind of inspired this one.I am thinking of recording me playing this so you guys can hear.
