Hunting through my strings I found a Vinci, which must be 40 years old. Vinci went out of business, then returned then went out of business again: I loved those strings. Anyway service is resumed and am hearing a serious vintage vibe. #guitar #guitarstrings #guitarist

For those curious about Nashville tuning:

Nashville tuning uses special strings: the four lower strings (6–3) are tuned an octave higher than usual, while the top two stay the same.

Using regular steel strings for this can add too much tension and risk snapped strings — or worse, damage to the guitar.

These are the strings I’m using, and I really recommend them.

Over the past two weeks I have restrung seven of my guitars as I have a pile of parts to record over five projects. I have only used a few brands of strings over my 51 years of playing guitar. @ernieball @guildguitars, @daddarioandco and now @curtmanganstrings, which in my humble opinion are the best. Tone, longevity and tension. Get in there… #guitarstrings #recordingstudios #musician
