Finding himself in agreement, Garcia's partner in six-string crime, Shane Gann, quips, "Because the guitar as an instrument offers multiple ranges, we naturally have an awareness of the space we're taking versus what space is available. We aren't writing for seven-strings or drop tunings, so it must fit within the arrangement, suit the song, and be fun and unique."
