I put .012-.064s on it and set the bridge angle and intonation. I just didn't feel (with my ears and heart) the tuning. Tried to like it, played it for awhile, just wasn't inspired and didn't write anything I thought was any good.

Bb Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb

Dropped D

Everything the band playes right now is in "B," but recently we've been divin' head first into "A" alot more......

HotRodded7321 · 03-29-2007, 03:13 AM

Drop F, Drop F#, G, Drop G, Drop G#, A, Drop A, Drop C, Drop Db, Drop D, and Standard.

...I play alot of different stuff, everything from rockabilly and blues to crazy death metal shit.

I also use open and octave tunings sometimes, but very rarely. Adam is the same, he uses 50 billion tunings, too...and until recently, he actually had a guitar for almost every single one.

It would be heavier than the heaviest of metal.
