Hi All,

I was wondering if there is a guitar pedal effect out there that can "change," or mimic an alernate tuning. I figure it would be a lot easier then retuning my guitar everytime i want to do something different.


thanks all

Hey bobby I seriously doubt it. The most ive seen is expression pedals that raise all the notes like a step or two higher. I dont think they got somethin that will change to like DADGAD or somethin. That would be cool. I dunno how well it would sound though.

The closest you can buy is a Line6 Variax which does that, I believe.

I was readin up on the Variax and I couldnt find anywhere that it does such a thing but it seems like a cool guitar. Anyone ever try one?

Actually I believe the roland VG8 will allow you to detune your guitar as you wish.I seem to remeber Joni Mitchell using one for that purpose.Just do a search for the VG8 and you should be able to find out if in fact it does have that function.Be prepared when they first came out they weren't cheap.
peace Andrew

A friend has a variax and says he can do it. Can't say for sure since I don't own one but this guy is reliable.
