The Gomez 004 CE Thin Line is a semi-acoustic classical guitar. It has a build-in element which works on batteries, so you can play it electric via your guitar amplifier. In this video the guitar goes thru the Behringer DR400 digital reverb pedal and the Boss SL-2 Slicer. On the DR400 I have selected a plate reverb and the SL-2 creates the rhythmic patterns that you hear during the performance.
This performance is an intuïtive meditative improvisation on the tonescale of Raga Kirwani, which is a evening/night raga, which means it is best be listened to during these times. When I improvise on a tonescale of a certain raga I don’t follow the striked rules of a raga, but I just let the melodies and frases come the way they come to me by heart and from my essence. Therefore forgive me when it’s not exactly Kirwani like it should be played by the rules, because it’s pure intuitive improvisation. Hope you will like it anyway.
The guitar is tuned in an open 432 Hz tuning and the basic tone is D. The basic tone is what they call in Indian classical music the SA tone, which you can compare to the C tone in Western music. The difference is that in Indian classical music the SA isn’t a fixed note. You can choose any note you like for the SA, depending on your range from your instrument or your voice for singers.
By tuning the strings of a guitar into an open D it is more of less possible to play a guitar like a sitar. The 4 thickest strings are only used for the drone tone in D (D-A-D-A) and the 2 thinnest strings are used for the solo parts (A-D). On a sitar is only one string used for the melodies. Because the guitar has not such a long neck comparing to the sitar we have to use 2 strings on the guitar for melodies to get the full range of 2 octaves that is normally used in Indian classical music. It would be also possible to change the thickest strings into thin strings for the drone tone, tuned into D – A. That would even give the guitar more sitarlike sound, because the rhythm strings on a sitar have a high pitch. But I like the sound of the deeper strings for the rhythm. It adds a little bit more body to the sound of the music.
The 432 Hertz tuning was the original standard tuning in the beginning of the past century, before they desited to change the standard tuning to 440 Hertz. 432 Hertz is much more healthier and more meditative, if you ask many people who know something about the healing vibes of music. In Far Eastern countries they also use this kind of tuning.
Hope you like the improvisation that I made for you and you will enjoy this short guitar meditative concert to relax. Namasté 🙂
