                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[It is definitely good to have several guitars.  Different pick-ups, different tunings, different strings, and just plain old variety will help with different sounds and song playing variety.  Then there is all the other stuff to help with different sounds (amps effects, attenuators, EQ's).]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Thats part of the reason to have more than one guitar, so that you can have them tuned different.  Its a real pain to drop a double locking tremolo down 1/2 step, takes me a good 15 to 20 minutes to bring it around to use. For years now I've always kept two tuned E flat that way I only need to tweak them and play.<br><br>Joe]]></content:encoded>

You'll be surprised at how much difference the tone will be, not to mention bending strings into the middle of next week.  I've always keep a couple guitars tuned to Eb just for that reason.<br><br>Joe]]></content:encoded>
