It's bad, real bad. Over 6 months since I have been able to play. I ran into a hearing problem and lost my tones. My guitar sounds completely out of tune. I am wearing hearing aids but still don't have my tones. The doctor says he thinks I might get the tones back. I have had adjustments on the aids but so far no good. I have been playing pedal steel for abmost 44 years and I sure do miss it...Does anyone know of anone running into this problem and later get the tone back? |

Gosh Francis, The only one I`ve ever heard of was the deaf guy in the bible that was cured by Jesus. Hang in there and dont give up hope.
Of course I dont know much about your loss of tones, but someone else may.
Good luck to ya _________________ SO MANY LURES, SO LITTLE TIME.... |

Francis, does all music, radio, TV, You Tube etc sound out of tune to you? Or just the music you make?
I don't have a suggestion. Just trying to understand your problem and want to wish you a speedy recovery.

With my hearing aids I can hear a lot better than I did before the problem started. Since I have lost my tones most but not all music and singing sounds out of tune or off pitch. |

Francis - Maybe allergies clogging up your ears? It's been a rough year for allergies. _________________ Just 'cause I look stupid, don't mean I'm not. |

I've had a thing happen to me 2 times that I hear 3 tones that are just a tiny bit off frequency from each other, the steel, and music, and voices, it only last a minute or so both times ,I put my finger tip in my ears and created a vacuum and popped them gently, it went away, I think its sinus related and plugged tubes going to my ears. Good luck, keep us posted.

I got minears disease a few years ago and music sounded distorted and like a flanger. It was worse when I was tired. At times it would be two notes different from one ear to the other. I had tinnitis too. I had to wear an earplug in the truck because I couldn't take the noise. I lost most of the hearing in my left ear and got a lot of it back later. I done a lot of research on line about it and started on magnesium and homeopathic remedies. A good health food store has lots of information and books that tell what the herbs really do. They cannot advertise the medicinal properties of them. I think that is the same thing that Lloyd Greene had. I got a hold of him by email and he told me about his experience with it. Good luck with it, it ain't fun. If I can do anything let me know. crunchcole@columbus.rr.com |
