Did you know that B-52's guitarist Ricky Wilson, the brother of B-52's vocalist Cindy Wilson, tuned his guitar in an unusual way? The guitarist of the B-52's, had a distinctive guitar style that contributed significantly to the band's sound. His playing was characterized by a combination of surf rock, new wave, and punk influences, creating a quirky and danceable aesthetic. He often played Moserite guitars and favored distinctive open tunings, sometimes playing with just four or five strings. He has been reported as saying I just tune the strings 'til I hear something I like, and then something comes out. I don't write anything down. I have no idea how the tunings go. Wilson's decision to not tune his guitar to standard tuning became an important part of the B-52's unique sound. • #musicfacts #music #songfacts #didyouknow #funmusicfacts #musichistory #guitar #electricguitar #rickywilson #theb52s • ---------------------------------------------------------------------- • Thanks for Watching and please Subscribe!
