[@bcancun123]

Serious jammin in the background

[@davyholden]

True that!

[@susanluster9301]

Davy, So interesting. I hadn't a clue as to how this was done on a guitar.

[@davyholden]

Thank you Susan!!

[@Vespa123]

wrong

[@jdelcolli]

One tip: if cleaning and hydration is not necessary, it is better to take one string at a time and replace it with the new one so that the neck does not lose all the tension that the strings produce at once

[@davyholden]

I agree dude!

[@leandrofod]

Very interesting and makes a lot of sense. 10 years of experience and another TIL.

[@beyondthehorizon75]

Exactly!

[@thilde007]

Here’s the link to Dave explaining how he does it. Im curious why you wouldn’t include this in the description as reference. th-cam.com/video/aud9atBS8j8/w-d-xo.html

[@shanej.nichols0614]

This is not how John Frusciante strings his guitar, you completely missed the over under on G and under over under on B and E

[@psychakilla]

How do you do this using modern tuners

[@sebastiankip]

What model strat is this?

[@davyholden]

Mexican fender road worn series 😊

[@SH0RTFINGER]

what tuning pegs do you use?

[@DeadheadDay]

do you know what the height of the strings and bridge was?

[@davyholden]

I dont know this im afraid!

[@Sierraonehundredandseventeen]

What is the background track / recording?

[@davyholden]

It is a compilation of RHCP intro jams!🙂

[@Deltainblue]

Máximo 3 vueltas en las cuerdas gruesas y 4 en las finas así te duran más aunque no parezca es cierto...

[@niccoloabbes5280]

4:45 where is that riff from?

[@davyholden]

I'm actually not sure which intro jam that is from! There's some awesome videos on TH-cam of all the RHCP intro jams. You should check it out 😊

[@mundoformula2373]

Looks like Purple Haze by Hendrix

[@niccoloabbes5280]

@@mundoformula2373 thanks

[@Allison_Chaynes]

Is that a polyurethane finish? It Looks like it. Looks like you took a saw to it. You should get a heat gun and remove the polyurethane finish. You can buy nitrocellulose lacquer and paint your guitar yourself. Then it will naturally start showing that nice worn in look. I did it to a strat of mine. I painted it LAKE PLACID BLUE. It really did make a big BIG difference. Cheers.

[@davyholden]

It surely is Poly! Yeah thats a great idea! I'll have to do that!😃

[@craigutter4372]

What kind of fretboard cleaner do you use? I use lemon oil as a conditioner. Is that good and a cleaner or is there a better option

[@davyholden]

To be honest I never use a particular one. Im not fussy. Whichever brand will do the job!

how dave changes john's strnigs *

[@Hyst31]

Nice but only one point, John play 11-46 Dave Lee talk about it, in the comments of the video you showed at the end. Besides, if you plan to make a video of the tones that he uses on each song, we are very interested ^^

[@davyholden]

Ahh cool, good to know. I will definitely do that in the future! 😊

[@station2station544]

Really? I've heard John say XL 10.46 on a couple occasions. But if you've heard otherwise maybe im wrong.

[@wickedgit]

Frusiante doesent use the high E he actually uses 2 B strings so 11-11-17-26-36-46....very wierd!:)

[@nwparker94]

Really ?

[@leandrofod]

I think you misinterpreted that info. He uses .10 gauge strings on all his guitars (except the Gretsch which he uses .12), but only the high E is .11 so he doesn't break it as often
