Had I been more insightful when starting out on the guitar I might have never used standard tuning though - as its logic can be questioned. By the way don't miss an awesome lesson by Cosmin about Drop A. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

I've got my guitar strung up with 11's so when I play in standard it sounds killer. I always seem to get the best tone, crunch and tightness when playing in standard, but obviously can't get that beefy sound of a drop tuning. So Kris, what is it about standard tuning you find illogical? You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
