A point in question about Griffbrett string gauge
Posted: Wed May 02, 2018 10:05 pm
Please tell me to wind down if I am suggesting something out of the norm.
I will not be offended.
Okay....
My A strings on the Griffbrett are 0.015".
On an acoustic guitar which is 1 1/2 times the Zither length, this would equate to about a 0.020" on the top E string.
This is massive!
No wonder we suffer and get calluses.
It is no wonder that with such a string gauge it is hard to fret the strings.
Has it been known to use a lesser string gauges for example 0.010" for the A strings?
Why suffer when there may be an alternative?
I will very much appreciate your views negative or positive.
If the down line is " Pete, get on with it " then i will accept.
No worries.
It is just an enquiring observation?
