    Default Somebody asked me about good guitar tone...

    A guy contacted me and asked these questions. Found the questions weird. It's from some "program" called NLP (NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) began in the early 1970s when two Americans, a mathematician called Richard Bandler and linguist John Grinder, asked themselves a simple but fascinating question: "What is it that makes the difference between somebody who is merely competent at any given skill, and somebody who excels at the same skill?")

    Here are the questions and my answers. Do you think I was clear enough?

    What must be true about setting up the tone that allows you to get the tone you get?
    A: A good amp and a good guitar.

    What is important to you about setting up the tone?
    A: That the amp and guitar is good.

    What is the first thing you think when you are setting up the tone?
    A: Does it sound good?

    And what do you think next? And next? And next? How do you know that the process
    of setting up the tone ended? When you know that you got the tone you wanted?
    A: When it sounds good.
    The Law of Gravity is nonsense. No such law exists. If I think I float, and you think I float, then it happens.

    NLP is some cool stuff. Many athletes and CEOs etc. use the principles to excel at their endeavors. You can go to a certified NLP practitioner and go through a simple process that will allow you to play and sound better every time you play a guitar. It works.
