Thanks! I'll be making a trip to the guitar shop this week.

I just wanted to make sure. Hey, you learn something new every day. Again, thanks for your help.

Mine is just a rough estimate. I'm sure you could easily tune to CGCFADG with the gauges I mentioned, but you might get better results with slightly altered gauges.

I made a thread about tuning up. I tuned to D standard with a high G, but if you want to tune to Drop C its only the lowest string thats different.
Tuuuuuning up.


Glory and praise to Thee, Satan, on high,
Where Thou didst reign, in Hell where Thou dost lie,
Vanquished, silent, dreaming eternally.
Grant that my soul some day rest close to Thee
Under the Tree of Knowledge which shall spread
Its branches like a Temple overhead.
