Double Drop D
DADADGBE and rock on!
guys, do you think that tuning EADGCFAD will be posible on 25,5" scale?
I'd be inclined to say yes, though I've never tried it.![]()
This set on the bottom 6, plus two plain steels at the top. It gives me the same tension as the strings I use on six-string....
I tried drop E, (EADGDGBE) on my Schecter and it was ok when using touchtyle but not great with a pick. That's on a .74
I call it drop DAE. I've only tried it a half-step down so I could play both SikTh albums plus Meshuggah's 'Nebulous', but I didn't find much use for the dropped D at the time. I prefer drop AE. It makes fingering octaves on those strings easy, and you can use the bottom two strings as a bass. Put 'em together and you can easily fret an octave bass line if you wish.oh also has anyone tried a EADADGBE?

You get a wall of sound and can pull off 3 octaves on one fret. That EBEBEF#BE tuning looks great too!
