Lesson: How to Tune to Drop A on Guitar From Standard

A guitar lesson video showing how to tune to Drop A on guitar. This was a request. I don't plan on doing any more lessons unless anyone requests. The song I played at the end was Psychosocial by Slipknot, click here to see my full song guitar cover of Psychosocial:

Drop B: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5x2d45_vVWQ

Tune the 12th fret low E string to the A string.
Tune the A string to the 7th fret E (Now A) string.
Tune the D string to the 5th fret A (Now E) string.
Tune the G string to the 5th fret D (Now A) string.
Tune the B string to the 4th fret G (Now D) string.
Tune the high E string to the 5th fret B (Now F#) string.
The high E string is now B
