    Here's a rhythm guitar lesson on How to play Davidian by Machine Head. Back in the '90s this song rocked (and it still does). Dropped B tuning, brutal riffs and one of the best breaks in the history of metal.
    The lesson on the Solo is coming up real soon!
    Check out the cover as well - • Machine Head - Davidia...

    You tuned a tremolo equipped guitar to this weird tuning just for this lesson? That's commitment man. Thanks for all that you do!

      As a guitar player with only 1 guitar and that guitar is equipped with a Floyd Rose bridge I definitely feel this comment lol. It actually becomes easier to alternate between tunings when you have done so several times (especially on the same guitar), you get a better feel for it and it becomes easier and easier each time. Depending on how different the tunings are obviously, for instance if you’re switching between standard tuning, 1/2 step down (Eb) or D tuning and D standard then the adjustments you need to make on the springs and the machine heads isn’t that much of a leap. When you go farther down to C and B tunings is when it becomes a real pain to make all the adjustments each time you go back and forth. Sorry for the long comment but it’s actually been a big point of focus for me lately having just gotten back into guitar and stupidly picked a Floyd Rose equipped guitar as the main guitar I was able to finally afford again. I was bummed at first but now I’m kind of glad because it’s just another skill I am getting better at. Plus once you stretch the shit out of the strings several times then lock the nut it stays in tune much longer than a non Floyd Rose equipped guitar.

    here..let me make the tuning issue easier. It is dropped c tuning. However...the reference is not 440hz....it's 432hz.

  • @VictorUtanQ
    @VictorUtanQ 8 ปีที่แล้ว +31

    If anyone have a hard time finding that sweet spot for the 40 cent sharp tuning: If your tuner has a Hertz setting where you can adjust the Hertz, instead pf putting it in 440Hz like you normally would, you put it to 480Hz. Hence the "40 cent sharp".

    • @MrTR909
      @MrTR909 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Basically the concert or chamber pitch has to be adjusted. It used to be in standard A 440Hz. Keep in my mind if u would like to play this with a band all instruments must change the concert pitch.

    Rob doesn’t do the harmonics on the fifth fret, he does them on the seventh since it doesn’t sound as wound. He’s talked about it before.

  • @pold92
    @pold92 8 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    i think the harmonics of the first riff are both played on the 7th fret, one string higher each tone (saw it in a live video in slow mo).

Saw them live in 2019 in Munich.. I have a great video from this song on my channel (got blocked in Germany 🇩🇪) .. so I didn‘t over exaggerated when I said this was one of my favorite MH songs .. god bless Metal

      @w.j.christophe8779 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah, that's not right though. A lot of tabs are in E standard too, but I think it's just because the tabber figures as long as the guitar is in tune with itself it's ok. Hell I just learned this one tuned to drop C#.

  • @encrypted-be-official7237
    @encrypted-be-official7237 8 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    Hi, just wanted to share this. Its just a standard drop C tuning, but they set there tuners to 432Hz instead of 440. Google it on why you SHOULD do that ! It resonates better with everything in this univers ;)
    Put your tuner on 432Hz, then tune to drop C and you'll see that its exactly the same as there tuning ;)
    good luck, have fun
