    Jazz Guitar Today Metal Guys use 7 String Guitars, but Guitars with 7 (or More) Strings are also ideal for Jazz cause you can get some pretty low Chord Voicings.

      @@jazzguitartoday They now make 10 String Multi Scale Guitars going down to a Low G#. These extended range Guitars are so versatile. One of the cool things about extended range Guitars is that you can easily read band charts because alot of songs will be transposed to match the ranges of singers.

    I could see 7 strings becoming the new standard at some point. They're used in so many genres these days and you can use them for anything you'd use a 6 string for but with more options tuning-wise.

      I’m using an 80 for the low A, and the Benedetto Bravo has a 25” scale. Thanks for listening!

    Tks for the video. I want to start with 7 string but am unsure about whether go for standard tuning B or like you A. Was standard no option for you?

    • @abuventertainment2856
      @abuventertainment2856 4 года назад

      When I got my 7 string guitar I played around in standard for a bit, but the extra range really opened up for me when I dropped it to A. It's easier for walking basslines in a jazz context, and you can drop the root of all your A-string chord vocabulary down an octave to create more spacious voicings.

    • @davidbahr9612
      @davidbahr9612 3 года назад

      I play classical, with an A in the bass a lot of the time- like the last commenter suggested. But standard makes sense for a lot of the pieces I play, and occasionally I tune up to C. Its all about whatever youre playing.

      I’ve found that to be an “interesting” issue. Normal guitar amplifiers tend to only emulate frequencies anywhere below 70 Hz or so. For years, I used a Bose L1M2 but recently switched over to John Buscarino’s Chameleon preamp/powered speaker. For a bass junkie like me, that sub-70 range is essential!

    That 7th lower string sounds like a disaster (stepping all over the bass) if you are playing in ensemble, BUT, if playing solo, I can see it as being necessary.
    I use a 12 string (6 extra strings) and string 7 I use for an extra treble string.
    If I played a 7 string Jazz guitar, I would drop down a step and add another treble strings for more haunted resonance.
