Hoʻomākaukau i ka jam? E hōʻoiaʻoe i ka mua o nā kaula pololei
ʻOiai paha he mea maʻalahiʻole ke kani o ka guitar, he mau mea nui ia o ka mea kani. ʻAʻohe kani,ʻaʻole āu kani. Aʻoiaʻiʻo, ua nui aku ka nui o nā kaula i mua o kou manaʻo. Mai nāʻokoʻa futuristic no ka hōʻoluʻolu e hana i nā ho'āʻo o nā pilikia, i nā ala a pau e hana ai i nā kolala kila, ho'āʻo nā mea hana i nā mea a pau e hiki iā lākou ke hāʻawi iāʻoe i nā kani hou. No ke kōkuaʻana iāʻoe e hōʻalo ma waena o ka nāhelehele, ua koho mākou i nā aho aho kūpono no nāʻano likeʻole, e noʻonoʻo ana i ka maikaʻi, ke kani, ka lōʻihi a me ka manaʻo.
Malia pahaʻo ka lei kalaunu o nā polita string guitar,ʻo Elixir ia no ka uhiʻana o ke nanoweb uila i hāʻawi iāʻoe (e like me ka mea hana) iʻekolu manawa o ke ola o nā string non-coated. ʻO nā mea a Elixir i hana pono ai i ka hoʻololi i nā aho kani kani e hoʻoulu nei i kahi'enemo, kele, like me ke keleʻulaʻula no ko lākou mau lāʻauʻeha. Hoʻomoʻa lākou i ko lākou mau kaula i loko o kēia pā, e hāʻawi ana iʻelua mau kōkua maikaʻi: hiki ke maʻalahi i nā manamana lima, a pale i ke kinona i nā hopena o ka honua e hōʻemi i ke kani maikaʻi a me ke ola o nā aho.
Ua koho mākou maʻaneʻi i ka māmā o nā kaula (mai .012 a .053) no ka mea, hāʻawi lākou i ka kaulike kūpono o ka pākuʻi a me ka hohonu o ke kani,ʻo ia ka mea nui no nā aho guitar acoustic. Ua koho mākou i nā aho keleawe 80/20 no ka mea hāʻawi lākou i kahi kani māmā, maikaʻiʻoi aʻe ma mua o ka string ultra-mellow Phosphor Bronze. Akā, inā he mahana ka kani e makemakeʻoe e hele, no laila e noʻonoʻo i ka puhi Phosphor.
Aia kahi nui o ke kani kilakanila ma laila, a ma kekahiʻano, nui ka nui o ke aloha me ka lawaiʻa -ʻo ka mea āu i hoʻohana ai i ka wā ma mua i kāu guitar e hōʻike pinepine ai i ka hae e paʻa aiʻoe. Akā, he kakaikahi paha e hakakā aʻo D Addario kahi mea palekana no kahi string guitar. ʻO kā lākou aho EXL mauʻu-ʻeha e lawe i ka pōʻai no nā aholeka ponoka maikaʻi ma o ka hāʻawiʻana i ka meaʻai kūpaʻa a me ka paila. Ia ia iho,ʻo ka EXL laina o kaʻilima kūʻai nui loa o Add Addario, a he kūpono paha ia ma kahi o kona'ōlinolino. ʻO kēlā leo ke hopena o kaʻehaʻeha, he kila nickel plated i hoʻohanaʻia e kūkulu i kēia mau aho.
No kēia koho, ua koho mākou i kekahi moli kukui uila, me nā kaula kaulike e pili ana mai ka .010 a .046, kahi hoʻonohonoho papahana eʻikeʻia e pono i ka nui o nā noi uila. Hanaʻia nā aho i ka USA no keʻano kiʻekiʻe kiʻekiʻe loa a ua hoʻolakoʻia, kūʻaiʻia a mālamaʻia i loko o kahiʻeke pale me ka hōʻinoʻana i ka wā e loaʻa iāʻoe nā kaula, e weheʻoe i kahi hou.
Ma waho aʻe o D'Addario,ʻo Ernie Ball paha ka inoaʻoi loa iʻikeʻia no nā kīla uila uila, a pēlā nō ia no kekahi manawa. A ua koho mākou iā lākou no kā mākouʻoihana maikaʻi loa no ka mea, hāʻawi iāʻoe i keʻano kānalua no kahi kumu kūʻai nui loa i ka momona a me ka hohonu o ka flagship Regular Slinkies. Hiki ke kaʻina mai ka .05 a .105, e hāʻawi iāʻoe i ka waena waena o ke alapili i hoʻonohonohoʻoleʻia eʻole e hoʻouku i ka puʻupuʻuʻole (a heʻoluʻolu ke pāʻani) akā e kau i ka palena haʻahaʻa ma waho o nā aho maikaʻi loa.
Ke hoʻopuni nei nā'ōpili'ōpili i ka'ōnikapika i nāʻano hex nui he'eneʻeneka nui e hoʻonui ai i nā aho. A ua hōʻoiaʻiʻoʻia ka hoʻopili a me kaʻoiaʻiʻo no Ernie Ball, e like me kā lākou hanaʻana no 50 makahiki. Hāʻawi lākou i ke kiʻekiʻe kiʻekiʻe, US-production me nā mea'eneka ma luna o ka helu a me nā lako mālama pono no lākou e pale i nā kaula mai nā'enewa.
Ināʻoe e noi aku i kahi mea hoʻokani piano i keʻano o nā aho a lākou e hoʻohana ai, he nui nā manawa he mea paʻakikī no lākou e pane. ʻO ia, no ka mea, i ka wā ma mua, he mea hoʻokani pila e makemake ana i ka maʻa pololei o ka string e kūʻai maoli iʻelua papa a hoʻonohonoho i nā'āpana likeʻole o lākou e hana i ka Frankenstein e hoʻokumu i nā mea e pono ai iā lākou e pāʻani ana. Ua ho'āʻoʻo Ernie Ball e pane i kēia pilikia ke puka lākou me ko lākou Skinny Top, Heavy Bottom gauge. He aha kēlāʻano, e loaʻa iāʻoe kahi meaʻai, nā kaha liʻiliʻi o nā string (.052, .042, .030) a me kahi maikaʻi maikaʻi loa (.017, .013, .010).
Aʻo ka mea e hāʻawi iāʻoe ma ke pāʻani,ʻo ia ka mea maikaʻi loa o nā aoʻelua no ka mea hoʻokani pila. Loaʻa iāʻoe ka hopena haʻahaʻa o ka beefy e hoʻohaʻahaʻa iāʻoe i lalo i ke kānana e hoʻohaʻahaʻa iho D aiʻole e hāʻule C, eʻae ai i nā pehu hohonu hohonu, i ka hopena o lalo. Akā, e hoʻokuʻu wale ia i nā aho nui e hoʻokuʻu ai iāʻoe a kulou no ka sotive guitar soaring. Ua hanaʻo Ernie Ball i ka hana i ka hana hou ma kahi'ē aʻe, ma o ke kūkuluʻiaʻana o kēia mau kaula mai loko mai o Cobalt alloy, he hana hoʻoheheʻe i hanaʻia e hana ai me ka hukiʻana i nā mea nui i kāu pahu i nā kiʻekiʻe ma mua o ka nickel-a me ke kila nā aho. ʻO ka mea e hāʻawi iāʻoe he puka iʻoi aʻe kaʻoi aku, a hiki i nā hopena kiʻekiʻe, nā loea nui a me ka haʻalulu kaumaha. ʻO kēia mau mea a pau he mele ia i nā pepeiao pepeiao o ka mea hoʻokani pila.
Loaʻa i ka uku kālā, no ka mea,ʻaʻole hiki iāʻoe ke paʻi i ke kumukūʻai a hoʻihoʻi mai iāʻoe i ka Martin SP Phosphor i nā aho mele keleawe. E hana ana kēia mau kaula no kekahiʻano o ka polu i mea mele / haku mele. A, inoa inoa-inoa-inoa, hikiʻole iāʻoe ke paʻi iā Martin -ʻo nā keiki e hāʻawi nei i nā mea kupanaha me nā mea hoʻokani a me nā mea hana lima mai ka makahiki 1900 mai.
ʻO kēia hoʻonohonoho he mālamalama / alakahi, e hāʻawi ana iāʻoe i nā ukana e piʻi mai .0125 a .055,ʻo ia ka mānoanoa maikaʻi no ka pāʻani acoustic no ka mea e hāʻawi ana iāʻoe i ka paakiki kūʻokoʻa no ka wikiwiki a me ke kukū nui e hāʻawi iāʻoe i ka piha, leo kaniʻole. ʻO ke kumu o kēia mau mea, he like me ka nui, he kānana kila kila, akā'ōleloʻo Martin e hana lākou i nā noiʻi kūʻokoʻa me nā mea hoʻokumu kūikawā kūpono e hāʻawi iāʻoe i ka paʻa paʻa, a lōʻihi loa. E hoʻokuʻu i kēlā me ka hoʻolāʻau hōʻoluʻoluʻo Phosphor Bronze, a loaʻa iāʻoe nā hua'ōlelo e hāʻawi iāʻoe i ke kani a puni nā mea hoʻokani pāʻani a pau, i loko o ke kekona a i ka poʻi ma kekahi wahi ma Kentucky.
Ma luna oʻelua mau makahiki i hala iho nei,ʻo Add Addario (ʻo ia kekahi o nā mea hana hou i ke ao o nā aho guitar) i hoʻomakaʻia e hoʻonui i kaʻike o nā aho kimela elepelu, aʻo kā lākou i hōʻea mai me kā lākou NYXL series.
Aia kekahi mau hana i ke kikoo no ka weheʻana iʻaneʻi, no laila e komo i loko. No nā mea hoʻomaka, ua hana pū lākou me nā mea hana i nā mea kūʻai NY ma kahi o ka hui maʻamau o NYXL steel e hoʻohiki ana e hāʻawi iāʻoe i kahi pale no kāu kāpena mai kahi hiʻohiʻona hoʻokolohua. Hiki iāʻoe ke hana i kēia mau mea no nā hebedoma, e like me ka mea hana, me ka hopohopoʻole i ke kahe. A he nui ia no nā mea leʻaleʻa guitar e manaʻo neiʻaʻole e pani i ko lākou kaula i kēlā me kēia pule.
A laila, aia ka palekana kaulike i hāʻawiʻia e kēia mau kaula. He aha keʻano o kēia mau mea i hoʻohālikelikeʻia i ka paeʻana i hāʻawiʻia e hāʻawi iāʻoe i ka manaʻo maikaʻi loa no ka pahūʻana, ka hukiʻana a me ka paleʻana i nā loulou i nā laina likeʻole. ʻO nā mea i loaʻa he .010, .0135, .017, .025, .034, .046,ʻo ia hoʻi,ʻaʻole ka mānoanoa loa o ka hopena haʻahaʻa aʻaʻole iʻoi aku ka lahilahi o ka hopena kiʻekiʻe. Hāʻawi iāʻoe i nā kaula haʻahaʻa e pili pū ana me nā kaula kiʻekiʻe aʻoi aku ma mua.
Hoʻokahi o ka hoʻohui hou i hoʻohuiʻiaʻo ka hōʻoiaʻana o kēia hoʻonohonohoʻana i loko o ka hoʻolālāʻana i ka pilina, me ke kāohi aku i nā kinakino, a no laila hiki iāʻoe ke noʻonoʻo he mea hou nō kāu mau kaula a ke hana neiʻoe i kāu māhele no ka'ōlohelohe.
I nā mea a pau i manaʻoʻia,ʻo Ernie Ball he mea hou i kahi mea kani i ke kani. Akā,ʻo ko lākou mau'Āpana Honua, he mea maʻalahi loa ia e hoʻokau ai i kāu mea e weliweli ai. Ua koho mākou i ka'āpana kilapasa i hoʻonohoʻia maʻaneʻi, no ka mea,ʻoiai keʻano maʻamau o ka phosphor i ke keleawe a me ka lepo, akā,ʻo Ernie Ball ke kaha o ka hōʻailona (ʻo ia kekahi mahele o ka hōʻailona hex steel core). ʻO ka Māhele Mālamalama Lā maanei e hāʻawi iāʻoe i kahi kahua waena maikaʻi no ka pāʻani mele, a hōʻikeʻia - hōʻikeʻo Ernie Ballʻo Paul McCartney, John Mayer lāuaʻo Billie Joe Armstrong, he mau mea hoʻohana maʻa mau i kēia string. Inā maikaʻi no keʻano o ka guitar, e aho paha no nā mea a pau.
Ke noi aku nei kaʻula DR i nā mea pāʻaniʻole,ʻaʻohe-gimmicks e hāʻawi nā mea kani i nā mea kani i ka manaʻo maikaʻiʻole. Hoʻokumuʻia nā string string Blues i ka US me nā mea pono a pau o US, a aia keʻano o ka manaʻoihana maikaʻi i kēlā. Ke'ōlelo nei lākou i ke koʻikoʻi lōʻihi i ko lākou mau kaula wili nickel aʻo ia nō ke kuleana o kekahi hapa i kā lākou hana. Akā, aia nō iā lākou ka waihona waina e mālama nei iā lākou, e loaʻa ana i ka māhele o ke kālepa e noho ana ma ke kuʻiʻana o ka mele mele momona a me ka timbre blues mua.
Akā, ma muli o keʻano o kēiaʻano nickel-ʻeha hou, ua hele pūʻia kēlā mehana mahana, kino kino waina me ka mīni mālie eʻike waleʻoe i kahi mea like me ka Ernie Ball. Eia hou,ʻaʻole lākou ka inoa o ka'ōlepa, a me ka inoa o nā maka'āinana, akā, aia naʻe ma ka moʻolelo. A inā hoʻokahi wale nō mea e makemake ai nā mea hoʻokani pila, he mele mele.
