U2start.com | U2 & Guitar Gear: Q & A

Originally posted by BelgianBono:I forgot to post it, but 3 weeks ago I finally bought my first guitar !

It's a Hudson HD1DX deluxe (at least that's what it says)...

I found it more easy to play, or at least less hard to push down the strings, than some other guitars so...

But it's hard to learn you know. Im training my fingers to make some chords (C, D, G, A, Am, E, Em, F), which works, but changing between them isn't going very fast yet
Wonderwall is sounding well though

If you guys have any tips for a beginner like me, I'd like to hear it

Nice first guitar Glenn

Sounds like you're doing things right though. Main tip is perseverance, practice and patience. It will come eventually

Does anybody know have the tabs for how Edge plays Stand By Me (full 360 version) ?? I already know how to play Still Haven't Found and would love to merge the 2 <3 If anyone could send tabs my way I'd appreciate it!

No tab to hand mate, but it's pretty much just bar chords from what I remember, all played with the capo on

I think it could be in a higher key now, cause ISHFWILF is in a higher key if my ears doesn't deceive me.

It's Bb now, aye. It was straight A during PopMart, possibly Elevation, but it went up to Bb during Vertigo.

It's just made me jealous, to be honest.

"I Still Haven't Found..." is a Strat tuned 1/2 down with a capo on the 2nd fret.

Glastonbury (2011)

Milan (Vertigo tour)

It was a half step lower during Elevation. The clip below is from the Hamilton show. Edge played it tuned down to "D" - with the capo on the 2nd fret)
