I’ve just realized I’m playing really sharp.

I don’t play in a group, I just play for fun by myself.

I’ve got my tuning slide out a couple of inches, but I think I need to spend some time playing long tones with drones.

It’s funny, I think this has been the case for a while and now my ear is used to it being sharp. Playing notes perfectly in tune sound flat to me on certain pitches.

Oh well, I was looking for an excuse to try that Walter White long tones drones I got previously. I’ll just spend some time doing that at night with my headphones on, etc.
