DCSGJ


Had been cutting it with my SG for the last few days or so. Really enjoying how the shorter scale length coupled with slight de-tuning (Eb) opened up heavy riffing ideas with ease. Sometimes, we need to get into the right frame of mind to trigger ideas & a different tuning helps.

The DC was out to offer a different feel/ tension. A wee bit more reach compared to the SG in terms of scale length but the neck profiles are somewhat similar- both rounded with substantial chunkiness without going overboard. Strangely, my legato was more efficient here compared to the SG so the sure take-away here is that a shorter scale length does not translate into playing efficiency for sure.
