One for the guitarists out there. Peter Hayes, in his own words, 'didn't learn guitar in regular tuning all that well'. Peter takes 9 Gibson ES335's on tour. All of them are in different tunings, to make it easier to play the different songs. Wait, ALL of them? BRMC have that many tunings?

In it, Peter explains his tunings, strings, guitars and sound. There's a lot to take in. For the more casual BRMC fan, who happens to play guitar, it's a nightmare situation. Covering songs like 'Beat The Devil's Tattoo' one minute, to change to 'Ain't No Easy Way,' is a process in itself.

It's what makes Peter, well, Peter, but every time the tuning on your guitar changes, it's fear-inducing.
