Add artist
Dave Matthews worked with Gibson to design a custom guitar that he keeps in a special tuning of his own design, named "High B." According to Matthews' tech, "the string gauges are 16, 11, 15, 18, 30, and a 42, and you can play just your standard chords...but it obviously sounds much different...It's basically like a guitar with a capo at seven, I believe...." he said at (2:10). "There's not another company out there that's that signature. It just looks great, and the sound, more than anything he just loves the way it sounds."
