I never really cared about tunings before.. so, I've basically been tuning to "whatever sounds cool" for the past few years.. lately, though, I've decided to experiment with other kinds of tunings and I've devised my favorite tuning to play in.. it's tuned half Drop-D tuning (because it's so stupidly fun to play!) and half of what Lee is tuned to in songs like Bull in the Heather, so it's..
D A D G C D any other ridiculous or cool tunings you tune to, post.. i'd also like to know polvo's tunings.. |

Standard.
I sometimes like a dropped D tuning (I use several) or open G.

Lately I've been playing a lot in standard.
If I like to play noisey stuff I just twist the tunings around.

Usually standard or tuned down a half step all the way (Smashing Pumpkins tuning), and the Teisco is usually in a SY tuning

I'm in standard now, I used to play in standard C (two whole steps down).
I'm trying to figure a way to play "Do You Believe In Rapture?" without having to restring my guitar. |

Standard.
I've messed with alot of tunings over the years but these days I prefer to use standard tuning. It's more challenging.
