Borlands tunning with 7's

sex_art · 11-15-2007, 06:13 AM

So Wes Tuned C# to C# for most of Bizkit's stuff but what did he tune the extra High string too...someone told me he just tuned it to C# to give it a unison effect on the 2 higher string..is this true?
thanks!

oh also dose anyone know the tuning on his 4 string he uses on Nookie

Yes, IIRC he tuned both the High B and E strings the same.

I don't even know how I remember this considering I hate this band, but I recall it being a low F#. Probably tuned the guitar in fifths.

His 4-string was tuned to F#

I just worked it out but its not tuned in 5ths the low b is an F# then the E is tuned to the F#s 5th then the next too are totally different its a B i think then the next string is tuned to its 5th

Yeah, I remember in Guitar Player, he said he wanted to add an extra "high e" to the other six strings, but he was tuning down a step and a half (Db) I think...
