Fleetwood Mac’s legendary guitarist Lindsey Buckingham gives an exclusive lesson for Guitar World. In Part 1, Lindsey talks about his Picking Style, and demonstrates how to play the classic…
What a great sounding guitar that is. One Shure SM 58 the only thing picking up the sound, no onboard electronics, just the guitar, the player, and the feel. Marvelous. He is a great player, whether or not his 2nd string is a touch out of tune or not! Come on, people. Picky, picky, picky. He could play most of us under the table and you all know it.?
Ok so here’s the thing. Any of you arseholes talking about out of tune ever think that maybe a lifetime of live performing has made him a little hard of hearing? and perhaps he relies on a tuner a little more than most of us now, they didn’t have all this newfangled ear protection back then or noise levels in clubs, they played LOUD And I doubt the interviewer wanted to feel rude and point it out. I’m sure none of you have ever played a guitar so inferior it’s gone out whilst playing, due to temperature or a million other variances big fucking deal nobody will ever be inducting you into the hall of fame for being able to perfectly tune your guitar?
Rolling Stoned voted him 100 out of the greatest 100 guitarist of all time. What a smack in the face! Lindsey is one of the most unique players out there. That whole list sucked!?
Tuning: Try tuning to 432 Hz, and down 1/2 step in standard tuning. I tried this and got a match. The 432 hz tuning I find really warm, harmonious, beautiful for both singing as well as guitar. This is one of my favorite songs by the amazingly creative and talented Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks since I was a kid. GREAT song!?
Anyone one who says JACK about the tuning on this video needs a check up from the neck up! It is tuned down ya dicks. Ya act like it an amazing SIN or something! Scheesh! Of shit…some one wake up Hendrix and tell him his tuning is jacked ! Quick get a hold of ALL steel players and tell them they are redundant. It was nice to see he did it that way instead of das kapo ?

April 14, 2015 at 4:20 amOk so one of his strings is slightly flat, why the big deal? do your
guitars not go out sometimes? Lindsey is a superb musician flat or in tune!?

April 14, 2015 at 12:56 pmNot out of tune at all, there’s just a bit of flex and buzz in the strings
because he’s tuned down. Any moron should know this. ?
