    Experience has shown - DONT trust your ears alone. Just sayin'... it pays off huge and your tone improves when you are in tune with nothing slightly out to cause issue.
  2. I use my pitch fork to get an A 440Hz and then tune by ear too.And I must say, I NEVER fail (and the 150€ - stroboscopic tuner of my grandfather -proffessional musician- admit that my ears were right by a percentage of 95%)


    PS. I used to get the A 440 from my telephone (when you get any phone off the hook, it gives you a perfect A 440... It was my only tuning method until I bought the pitch fork).
  3. What Les Paul is Edge using during One at the Rose Bowl DVD? I can't see it clearly cos of the blue light

  4. I think it's the same as always, maybe a white finish 1973 Custom with black knobs?


  5. No I don't think its the usual one
  7. By the way, great dicussion (and full of U2 non-lovers, even U2 haters) about the non-ending theme of "Why does Edge use so many guitars" goes on here:

    I love this particular quote:
    And also, if you own a collection of delicious guitars and there is someone to tune them and hand them to you one after the other wouldn't you take advantage of it just to play them?
    I would.
    hahaha
  8. hey guys just uploaded my first cover on youtube, did a cover of Vertigo



  9. Pretty good mate Like the sound off that guitar, nice and full. Maybe during the "All of this.." parts, try hammering on instead of sliding? Just an idea Good job

    cheers mate, thanks for watching
    yeh i dunt like that part either, normally i play power chords to match adams bass riff, prob shoulda done that.



  11. He, nicely done man! I've always been crap while playing the ending of the song...I think this helps me to figure that out.

    Just one thing, try to play just a tiny bit slower, don't hasten through the main riff etc....try to tab along with Larry.

    I'm telling you this because I've always had the same problem myself
