What Is Nashville Guitar Tuning?

Have you ever tried "Nashville" or "High Strung" guitar tuning? In this short video, Sam shows us how to restring and tune your guitar to Nashville tuning, using the thinner gauge "octave" strings from a 12-string guitar.
This works for both acoustic and electric guitars and offers a completely different, almost mandolin-like tone, great for double tracking guitar parts in the studio to add a little extra sparkle!

If it sounds like a mandolin, you should've played the mandolin solo from "Stonehenge" by Spinal Tap.

So nice and open sound☀️

This tuning is how to properly play "Hey You" by Pink Floyd. I once used an old crappy guitar and some old strings, did this just to learn the song and play it the "right way" but I didn't really experiment with the tuning further. It is a really awkward tuning to play in even though it's still technically standard.

[@joe_smoe15]

Ya i ain't doing that

[@cristianrata3708]

thnks men.. what guitar do you have in the back? (the standard tuning one).. look amazing! cheers from chile

[@tojuulistocuul6137]

Why not just use a 12 string?

[@brianmcdermott281]

Not everyone has one my friend

[@starluxstudio619]

It sounds different than a 12 string. It’s it’s own sound.

[@Thegeordiemusician]

Which guitar do your recommend to do this on ?

[@ChefIan07]

Just buy a 12 string instead of doing this

[@vladislavlem8794]

Хм... Может пригодится для записи гитары, чтобы сделать звук плотнее 👻
Спасибо!

[@dorkle9085]

Not everyone has a 12 string guys, shut up.

[@SKhorse85]

Ikr people are genuinely so annoying

[@nirki]

You'll need a setup

[@nigel-b]

So basically your playing a 12 string guitar part on 2 6 string guitars ... why not just use a 12 string then you can do it without overdubbing?

[@markbass354]

I NEED BASS

[@anthonycajar9961]

lars can play guitar?!

[@Not_Sure_2505]

Or just play a 12 string 😂

[@henry3414]

so i have a 6 string guitar with no strings on, nashville strings cost £6 on amazon and you want me to buy a whole new guitar with 6 extra strings on it?

[@maximuslo]

Why not just play a 12 string?

[@rensuzugamori2531]

Just get a 12 string if you're gonna do standard with a nashville overdub.

[@kongshvalmagyar4984]

12 string guitars: :(

[@Grumpy_CBG]

Just play a 12 string ya muppet

[@starluxstudio619]

It doesn’t sound like a 12 string. Lots of songs have 12 string and Nashville tuning. One doesn’t replace the other.
