uh oh, someone admitted to using a drop D type tuning, run brave one, run.

If you want brutal as in powerful, then go for something like G (my guitar can handle that, on 9-42 strings (i think that's the gauges i'm using)).

__________________

C man, all the way down to C

__________________

I always go with B, anything else sounds way to low for me.....

whats wrong with drop tuning? some of the best guitarist drop tune....

i find nothing wrong with drop tuning, i play drop tuning, its just there are guys here who aren't very fond of people who do.

I would say B for death tuning, but i prefer drop d, just pick up a nice 5 string bass and play the B! mmmmm

Thats the tuning I use on our heavy songs
when we aren't playing thrash

I don't use the drop tuning, but Nile uses drop A tuning

I always play in standard or drop D. There is nothing wrong with drop tuning. I would venture to say that most people who question someones ability because of what tuning they use are either close minded or havent really researched the history of dropped tuning. Players have been using it for years. Dont only associate it with only Staind or other NuMetal bands, which is where it really got its spotlight. Its just an alternate tuning...thats all. Thats the beauty of the guitar...you can make it your bitch in order to get the sound you want. Standard tuning is great, but dont let it become a box.

P.S. I wont go a defense spree of Mike Mushok, cause Im sure that there are guys out there who kill for less, but keep this in mind...he was a student of Tony McAlpine ( I sure hope you all know who Tony is), a student who would set back to back with his teacher and trade blistering improvised leads for prolonged periods of time. Just because he is at the front of NuMetal and people dont like him because he focuses on a commercialized sound doesnt mean he doesnt have skill, it just means he is into something different, like making some money off of his music. No, I dont really like Staind.
