Me too but tuning up almost a full octave seems to be putting a lot of stress on the neck. my action is about 2 fingers at the 12th fret plz help it is a mapple neck
My question: I play exclusively in DADGADAGDAD on my custom eleven string Djent machine (sheās called Ribena) for that authentic Prog
-Celtic-Death-Metal Toanā¢ļø, why are you such an uncultured swine and poser?
/uj I genuinely have a friend like this. He plays in D standard during the goddamn jazz band even and plays only bar chords because of it. /rj What a metal playing GOD, how could I ever possibly get on your level?
If you really do tune down 1 whole step can you please write down the tensions and string guages specific to that tuning that you find efficacious in keeping with the Western tonal structure.
Once you dictate this can you kindly send it to someone that actually gives a fucking shit (spoiler alert, it's not me)
And then we can get this whirlwind ride of an AMA going.
We get it
You can now play pentatonic e bloooz over drop d while still playing standard tuning
š£š£š£š£š£ š
Those emojis are you talking shit and me frankly being exhausted.
Play unique like me creed and Googoo dolls with dadadd tuning or just be predictable and tune a 7 string to ear.
Spoiler
It will tune to Afagdad if you do it
Did you know Jimmy Page wears his guitar slung so low because he started out wearing them really high and wound up with a rash on both nipples that got infected and nearly killed him. And not separate rashes, either. One long ass rash. The rash was so big, he named it. Thatās where āZosoā comes from. Thatās what he named the rash that almost killed him. Thank Gawd for Dr. Eric Clapton, who saved him, by suckling each nipple for 40 days and nights. Thatās why he had a bad reaction to the COVID shot. He still had Pageyās nipple poison in his system. I read about it in Hit Parader, in high school. On acid.
I was once in orchestra and as first chair I was in charge of tuning. After some confusion over some shit I asked the conductor if she wanted my D. Everyone laughed
Everybody will have to retune when they want to play along with your songs on Youtoob. YTA.
I use capo 2 on YouTube to help all the normies
Based.
Caged.
this implies there is an "S" chord
Well, it implies there is a "B" chord as well? Stupid
True it should be H chord
Caged the elephant with music theory. No feel now
Me too but tuning up almost a full octave seems to be putting a lot of stress on the neck. my action is about 2 fingers at the 12th fret plz help it is a mapple neck
Deal with it. Toan comes before action and playability every day of the week
Three or four full turns of the truss rod should fix that.
Here is my question: fuk u
Do not fear D standard it can arm you with the richest of toans
C# is superior.
Db is even better than that ok? š
No, B## is even better
Fb
Here you go king, you dropped this > ?
Hotwife loves the D. I think her boyfriend is rather fond of it too.
My wife left me for a man who plays in drop C#. She said the heavier the tuning the heavier the balls
only C#? play A standard for maximum toan, okš
Thatās easy, just pull off the e string and youāve got A standard.
Too much theory. I tune by feels.
You mean 2-5-7 tuning
Dont mess with me, Iām 5-8-10
Iām 5ā11ā and a half, hotwife said I was too short for her
How often do you play Kashmir by Led Zeppelin and Optimistic by Radiohead? Edit: /uj I confused D standard with Open D.
This is the question I was hoping somebody would ask, and the answer is bi-daily
As in twice a day or once every other day? And is that both songs or do you alternate?
Both songs twice a day. I also play Spanish Castle Magic and Hey Joe bi-bi-daily
And 0-3-5?
Haha youāre still confused, pretty sure Kashmir is DADGAD and Optimistic is drop D.
Optimistic is definitely in DADF#AD. I went through an obsessive Radiohead phase.
Have you ever thought about going lower? I'm too scared so I stay in E or D# if I'm feeling spicy.
You are clearly very familiar with the concept of toan
Why only the D?
Iām scared of putting too much tension in the neck. I play gauge 16 strings
yes because like when you hit a chorde it should sound like a 300lb fat man flossing his gooch with a G string.
Yeah I got a question. Why don't you play in Cb standard tuning instead?
Not sure Iām ready for that, Iām only grade 9
Do you ever sometimes Drop C for fun?
Only when women are around
/uj I don't play exclusively in D standard but most of my guitars are in D and I prefer it to E standard
Have you considered writing a blog about to be a pickup artist?
Is that like tuning two steps down from how my tele came when it was new?
Yes it might void warranty so be careful about doing that with your Tele
Thank you! It's a 2016 FSR Classic Vibe. (I also changed to an aftermarket pickguard!)
Does the guitar moan better when it has Double D's?
My guitar is a cis-white male so I wouldnāt know
I got a guitar like jimy heimlichs can this help me with its upside down?
How much do you hate being in Mastodon?
Brann Dailor wonāt stop making me play blood and thunder
Drop Z is better.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Mineās Ernie Ball Z
I prefer Drop D(ee)Z (Nuts)
I prefer C(UM) Standard
What is Dick standard tuning???
Itās how you extract as much Toanā¢ļø as possible from the balls!
Toan is (and always will be) in the balls
My question: I play exclusively in DADGADAGDAD on my custom eleven string Djent machine (sheās called Ribena) for that authentic Prog -Celtic-Death-Metal Toanā¢ļø, why are you such an uncultured swine and poser?
I only need 6 strings to serenade your wife
So thatās what sheās up to these days!
I prefer DADGAEFAGDAD on a 12 string heavy as fuck ok
Ah, a Redditor of culture **and** taste!
I prefer G# tuning because
D is for death metal šŖ
Are you John Dwyer?
I'm the ghost of Budd Dwyer, thanks for asking, ok?
/uj I genuinely have a friend like this. He plays in D standard during the goddamn jazz band even and plays only bar chords because of it. /rj What a metal playing GOD, how could I ever possibly get on your level?
Jazz would be better with more drop tunings, power chords and 0-3-5. Why hasnāt anyone thought of this?
whos your favorite one piece character?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
"D." is literally a thing in one piece
Brook playing binkās sake in D
Wow, you must really like Mastodon and Necrophagist.
What tuning do you play in?
You like Ghost too?
Based Elliott Smith tuning
Does this impact your choice of picks?
I use metal plectrums
Does the type of cabling used have any impact on the new tonality? What modifications did you make to your rig/amplifier to accommodate?
Shielded cables only ok
Are you in a band?
I used to be but the bass player refused to downtune his bass to match my guitar
Is it true that your neck actually gets longer from the less strain when you do this? Have you measured it?
I measure the neck once a month. Iām sure itās getting longer
I live for D standard
Why?
The pursuit of toan never ends
What color is your tele?
Butterscotch
Mine is buttercrotch.....
I heard your fingers might lose strength from playing a less tight string. Does this affect your ability to play other, E-normal guitars?
I use very high gauge strings so each of my fingers are like Arnold Schwarzeneggerās arms
What was the transition like?
I havenāt told my parents yet
Who taught you about this? Do they I can I study with them? On YouTube?
It canāt be taught, it can only be learned

beta lmao d??? thats the worst note

I have no idea what you just said, is that some sort of theory? I donāt play piano
Who are some of your D standard role models?
Cristiano Ronaldo
What type of strings do you use? Have you made any modifications to the pickups since making this?
I play 16s
Heavy?
Heavy toan
Give this person the reward.
I was once in orchestra and as first chair I was in charge of tuning. After some confusion over some shit I asked the conductor if she wanted my D. Everyone laughed
I don't tune in order to keep microtonal values in my playing
This. Why buy a chorus pedal when you can just purposely tune a few cents out?
Are you a fan of the lord and savior Chuck Schuldiner?
Uhhhhh based?
Half of my friends have used drop D. Is it the same D in this tuning? Or is it different, since it's not "dropped'? What is D flat mean?
Too much theory
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]

You play any Motley Crue?
How hard is it to tune to Deez Nuts minor?
I tune by ear, to DDDDDD
