First attempt at a composition in CGCDAD tuning. Played on the new Vintage VE2000GG Gordon Giltrap signature acoustic guitar.
Sus Scrofa Sus Scrofa
Simple composition in DADGAD inspired by noodling on a new acoustic guitar - a Vintage VE2000GG Gordon Giltrap signature. A great value for money guitar. The piece has an inevitable suspended chord as a focal point.
Pensive Pensive
Another day, another new guitar tuning to try a composition in. So the mood is quite pensive. The tuning is Csus4add9. Playing the Tanglewood Java through dual Avantone CK-1 mics.

The addition of acoustic guitar to a bit of Ambient VST music I uploaded earlier seems to have changed the musics character. A touch of melancholia results and the spooky vibe reduces. TW133 Mahogany Guitar / Proto-Plasm Pro VST and Vita Strings.

Sometimes it's fun just to noodle around with a MIDI keyboard controller and free VSTs and try and create a mood.
Glimmering Glimmering
A new tuning for me in an tune writing effort. Gsus4 - DGDGCD - proving interesting, but with fewer possibilities of open string use somehow. Tanglewood TW133 all Mahogany guitar and dual Avantone CK-1 microphones.
Finest Ever Years Finest Ever Years
Tryied to write another song. Acoustic guitar (Tanglwood Java), software sim bass from the same guitar, La Mancha Ruby classical on lead. The song may seem over romantic but it's true. Rain has often been a feature in times of profound change for me

Seize the Moment Seize the Moment
Composition in Csus2 on the new Tanglewood TW133. The all Mahogany body converts to a sound that suits a tuning as lowered as Csus2. A plain looking and cheap guitar but very enjoyable to play.
