What tuning is under the bridge?
“Under the Bridge” is performed in 4/4 time in the key of E major. The intro changes between D and F♯ major chords before the first verse moves into E. The bridge and ending modulate to A minor. The song marked a shift in style for Kiedis, who had spent most of his career singing rapidly due to his limited range.
Is under the bridge played with a pick?
Pretty self-explanatory. It’s easier to play fingerstyle but sounds better with a pick. I usually use a pick but it’s frustrating when you can’t hear the chimed notes very well. (please don’t post unless you can actually play the song, I know John uses a pick when he plays it.)
What key is under the bridge?
C major
What is open E tuning on a guitar?
Open E tuning is a tuning for guitar: low to high, E-B-E-G♯-B-E. Compared to standard tuning, two strings are two semitones higher and one string is one semitone higher. The intervals are identical to those found in open D tuning. Open E tuning also lends itself to easy barre-chording as heard in some of these songs.
