It's a demo of my new Agile AS-820 semihollowbody with P-90s. It's "Joy To The World," 3 essentially identical verses, the first played on the neck pickup, the second on the parallel combination, and the third on the bridge. Amp is my Electar Tube 10 with Jensen Mod speaker. Guitar volume and tone knobs were all set at maximum, the amp gain and volume both down to 3 1/2, bass, midrange and treble knobs all maxed. Maybe not the ideal combination, but a standard of comparison. The guitar's still got its original GHS .009-.046" strings on it, tuned in Open E, played with a combination of fretting and a green glass wine bottle neck slide. In a living room with 2 china cabinets, dozens of Christmas nutcrackers and similar stuff to rattle and buzz, neighbors mowing lawns, shooting Estes rockets, and my son in the basement playing Halo Extreme online and yelling at his opponents. (No joke!) Recorded with Audacity on my old 500 MHz G3 iMac with an Apple PlainTalk mic.

I'm grinning ear to ear 8) 8) -How do you tune to open E :?: Nice slide playing!! :D :D I just can't get this grinn off my face. the dog
still grinning!! very cool.
Thanks! Open E is the same as Open D, a full step higher on all the strings.
From low to high: EBEG#BE.
It's a better tuning than Open D for electrics with light strings, just because it keeps them tight enough to give decent slide support.
