DADGAD, but I had an absolute blast riffing Wolf-inspired riffs onmy acoustic in Open-G, so I suspect I'll be experimenting more in that tuning in the future.

Nothing like a good depressant to chase the blues away!

Orginally posted by Distressed Romeo ~Tuning two strings in unison can be cool. Preston Reed uses Cssed Romeo~GDGGD a lot...
Yeah, it sounds really cool. I can still get away using in an almost "bass" type way. It definetly makes some of the heavier chords and shit sound cool.

I also like to use the doubled strings on different frets, getting some nice sounds out them.

Funny, I tried Drop C on the classical tonight, and you were right, it sounds great...
