Intro To Drop-D Tuning Part 1

[PhilFeedback]

Cool

[TheMusiclover2307]

Drop G tuning will be sufficient. 

[3441Edward]

most bands tune half a step down now

[xxPunkoftheUSAxx]

i almost thought it was Billie Joe Armstrong for a second,

[xonlyxthexreflection]

i have a tuner, but everytime i tune it down from the 6th string(E) it just goes to 7 B

is that what its supposed to look like on the tuner?

[DontCallMeChrissy]

I just want to say thanks for pointing out that when you change the E string to sound like the 4th string D, it should be the same pitch as d but an octave lower. At first, I was trying to make the E string sound exactly like the 4th string d. This may seem like common sense to those who are more experienced but for beginners, not so. Thanks again.

[ichidori555]

easier way just use the 6th string 7th fret to tune.

it shuld sound like 5th string open. that's how u get drop d faster. instead.

[marrag1]

the guy at the end sings alot like the singer from switchfoot

[brt927]

@marrag1 That is the lead singer from switchfoot roflcopter

[marrag1]

@brt927 oh wow seriously lol i nvr knew his name lol and i use to like switchfoot too

[TheStockzzz]

whats lower drop b or drop d?

[jack2o12]

drop b

[silllynilllywillly]

drop b

[orlees]

can u show us drop A tunning

[xXTOdoubleDXx]

wow that would probably break your guitar you fucktard.

[MartyHITD]

what the hell, how would that break ur guitar

[xXTOdoubleDXx]

well apparently ppl like you are ignorant to the fact that a guitar neck isn't able to adjust on its own to different tensions you idiot. dropped A is pointless, and one of the lowest tunings on a guitar, and by going from virtually any tuning to dropped A would wreck your neck. so yea, owned

[GreenDay8005]

depends what strings you have..

if you have 12's, (high tension strings..)

it would not break your neck, but going into drop A with 10's would.

owned.

[xXTOdoubleDXx]

I didnt mention these strings, bc most ppl dont have them unless theyre already in the tuning itself. so if someone with strings for standard E tuning tried to drop to A, they WOULD wreck their guitar. so yea your comment is irrelevant. thanks for your worthless input. :)

[Winterhe4rt]

"But i dont have a digital tuner...all i have is a chromatic tuner " ...?

OMGWTF!!!

^^

[daevanxxz]

i lol'd when i saw that comment

[nothingxnothing]

what distortion pedal do you use?

[slimyesli]

Anus-Drive

[sktboix]

jus push the first string at fret 2 and tune to e.

[boXHead257]

or use harmonics.

7th fret on the 6th string, 12th fret on 5th string.

[pbplyrr]

or u can just use a tuner...

[AgentKujo]

But i dont have a digital tuner...all i have is a chromatic tuner

[kildude1190]

those also work for it. those are actually better for drop tuning cuz u can get more tunings

[AToxicOrange]

That makes no sense.

[kildude1190]

i agree, i have NO fucking clue y i said that... possibly i was less educated at that point but i rly dont know

[AToxicOrange]

Haha, it's all good, as long as you can laugh at yourself. XD

[jeagerpoelse]

buy one? its 50 dollars?

[IronvoiceStudios]

But this technique is good for tuning on the spot, like at a gig or something
