I think that it is more about playability. But then again, wouldn´t it be okay with lighter strings?I ment actually the weight of the instrument itself, but playability could also be the reason. Or maybe both. Anyway, don't think a better and different sound could be the reason.I agree - now the sound it very thin.I think we're all in agreement with this one! The National is one of his iconic guitars, starring on his most famous album cover and concert goers don't get to see it now. Sad really because people had some sort of relationship with it I feel. As soon as the light went on and reflected off it when he played the opening noted from R&J the crowd went mad. It looked like a glitter ball during the song and sounded fantastic. This new thing sounds just plain dull.

If it was Game of Thrones you'd be without a head by the way
Regarding the tuning, is his guitar tuned a half-step up so Open G at capo 8 becomes E-major? He must be doing that for sound or playability reasons, right? Makes no sense to use both a capo and tune a half-step up for just playing in the right key?
I can confirm it, 100% sure; RB and MK are sounding through KEMPER Profile Amp on their racks. They have 2 Kemper each.I could saw them last friday in A Coruña, during production set up.
