All our guitars are tuned half a step down, so we are talking about the D# tuning. Well, there is one exception, on our debut album we still used the standard tuning, but ever since Follow the blind we are tuned down. And by the way you made me very curious about this bend that you discovered... I don't know how many times we have played this song so far, and still I have no idea what the hell you are talking about Maybe I should listen to the studio version for a change and rediscover it myself

You received the feedback of one of the guys playing there! GMC is awesome.
I love this track and it's with Nightfall two of my favorite songs by BG. Are you talking about the only lead guitar that appears in the chorus? I hear a rhythm guitar and another one playing single notes (some of them seam to be bends). -------------------- My lessons

Follow was already tuned down Slavenko About why we changed... well, I would not call it "change", I would call it "development". Seriously, it would be incredibly boring for us to play the same stuff over and over again, we would have split long ago. When we did Battalions and Follow this is what we could play, what we could compose and what we wanted to do. But over the years we got better, as musicians, as songwriters, we discovered new influences and we just wanted to take our music to the next level. It doesn't mean that we don't stand behind what we have been doing back then, we absolutely do and I wouldn't change a thing, but as I said, progression and development is something very important in my opinion. We also didn't do a second Somewhere, a second Imaginations or a second Nightfall, this is not what we want to do. We do something once and then we want to move on.

I'm still a bit confused as my guitar is in standard and I made sure it was in tune with the tuner but those chords seemed to correspond with those chords I wrote above...?? Maybe the Youtuber slightly changed the pitch of the video, that would make sense And the chords you mentioned above are wrong -------------------- Guitars: various Gibson Les Pauls / Gibson J 45

The chorus is A#/G#/D#/F#/G#, repeat those ones 4 times and there you go Since our guitars are tuned down it actually sounds like A/G/D/F/G of course, but this is what we are really playing.

Don't worry, your tuner is fine I know this can be very confusing, but yeah, it is exactly as you described it, I am playing a A# chord, but you are hearing an A. Actually when we talk about what we are playing we ALWAYS refer to standard tuning, so when I play an A, but actually you are hearing a G#, we still call it A We are way too lazy to think "oh wait, I am playing an A, but since my guitar is tuned down it is no A, it is a G# now"... it stays an A, simple as that

Yep, me too ! I think all us guitarists do that.. no matter what we're tuned to we still call it an A or D if we play it in that position !! It definitely makes life easier -------------------- Guitars: various Gibson Les Pauls / Gibson J 45
