Working on fretted drones

Claude_Ruelle

Hello everybody.

Lately, I've been having fun working on playing some fretted drones on the guitar as opposed to the open-string drones we often use. I've seen Tim Pierce use a ton of those open-string drones that sound dope, and that made me want to venture into the idea of using fretted strings instead

Let me know if you've ever tried things like that and how you work on it.

Happy Sunday,

Wonderful! I really like the backing track and I;m so glad you've left it plain at the end to jam to! This technique is great and very natural, very good for writing music in general. I wish I had a pedal keyboard to sound drones with my foot but this is the best immediate substitute hah
