Take a large heavy sledgehammer ( preferably a 20 pounder ) and hit your guitar 6 - 8 times with it.... you will eventually reach your desired tuning.

That sledgehammer shit was funny and may actually work, but you need to find out what they're tuned to, it'll say at the top of the tab usually, and just coordinate your strings. Make them the same pitches and you'll be golden like a shower.

Well it'd take a long fucking time to explain doing it with every string, but you can use a piano, or just do it by octaves. Find the note on another string and play the open to make it the particular octave. Such as playing the B on the 5th string, and make the octave match what you tune the 6th string to... That's probably confusing, but I'm too damn tired to explain it better right now.

Since you can't make a retort without sounding like a pimply faced 14 year....which you more than likely are....I'll let the wolfs do my work for me.

D isnt a nu-metal tuning. Theres no such thing as a noob tuning. Pantera played in D. Martyr plays in DROP D, and theyre tech as fuck.

Anyway, Slipknot sucks, get a tuner. And good taste. And an English teacher.
