Daddo Oreskovich
BIO
Daddo Oreskovich is a Bosnian-born guitarist, composer, music educator, and multi-instrumentalist. He is a Berklee College of Music graduate and also a recipient of the Los Angeles Music Awards in the “Guitar Performance of the Year” category.
He has been a Graph Tech artist since 2008, after placing highly in guitar contests organized by Guitar Player and Premier Guitar magazines.
His main musical styles are Neo-Classical Rock/Metal and Progressive Rock/Metal, which incorporate some elements of his native Bosnian ethnic music.
Daddo exclusively plays on 8-string guitars and uses a unique tuning called "High A". Unlike traditional 8-string tuning (two extra lower strings), this tuning features one lower string (typically the low B) and one higher string above the regular high E -> the high A string. In some cases, the low B string is tuned down to A or lower.

“String Saver saddles are the best upgrade I ever added to my guitar. The tone transformation, clarity and sustain is amazing.
