it's in fourths! come on everybody, fourths! didn't you always want to play... in fourths!
Kind of yes! I have tuned in all fourths before and sort of love it (NB I do not tend to play many full chords anyway)

Isn't Fripp's tuning in fourths, the one he has played in since the 90s or so? Sorry, muso question, but that is what this thread has become.

Oh, not sure where I got that bit about Fripp tuning in 4ths.

not going to muso this up, but i still love the interview where somebody asked fripp how he came up with his alternate tuning and he gets all pissed at the dude and explains that his tuning isnt an alternate one, its the right one, and everyone else is just too stupid to accept it.

i do quite like the headless box ones, like stripping the guitar of all its phallic qualities. though oddly with even the slightest addition to that minimal extreme they become more dickish than ever.

Well, a small headless guitar is probably the least strange thing about them.

Neil's amazing. He played the Divynax and Anaplumb as my entrance and exit music. The Anaplumb got some second glances from a couple of my aunts because of the "marital aids" attached to it.
― EZ Snappin, Wednesday, 1 August 2012 20:00 (thirteen years ago)
lol!
i've had so many seeds of ideas for instruments like his that i've abandoned due to no way to execute them. awesome to see all this.
