Anyone Use Drop G Tuning?

It is my new fav , I still probrably wont go any lower

I Really Like Ibanez Seven String Guitars

Origanally posted by Variant - Pulled from the river Styx, the mighty black oar of doom in hand! I certainly would not call this particular guitar an "axe" more like a club. Whereas Noodles' KxK would run through an emo, spilling his insides for a quick death, this blunt mace would bludgeon the unfortunate effeminate soul, breaking bones, bruising muscle, and causing internal bleeding to lead only to a slow, painful death

Not drop G, but my band plays with standard-interval G tuning. I won't make any claims to never going lower, though.

No dropped G, just standard B tuning dropped 2 steps and I won't change it for the world.
I like my low E being at the same note as a bass' low E on the 3rd fret.

Primus Sucks.

I had all my strings down one step, then took the low A to G. Was pretty brutal sounding, but I havent been in that tuning in a while.

I used to tune to A standard, but found that to be too low, so i tuned back up to B. I'm a minority here ;p


If i have to get out of my vehicle, I'll fill this whole street full of uppercut!
