Pretty low...and then it gets ridiculous. To demonstrate, I tuned so low my string was flopping.
Recorded on my Ibanez RG8. https://soundcloud.com/fireball100/drop-x Totally a joke, I know. I just recorded it last night to drive a point across. And I tend to wanna tune really low, but then it gets so unmusical and more percussive. -Brandon |

Brutal!! \m/
The lowest tuning I've ever played on a guitar that was not a bartitone is Drop A. What exactly is drop X? This post has been edited by Zaek: Jul 20 2013, 07:36 PM |

Hehe, cool stuff I think I'll stick to standard E and D tuning myself Me too. I use 9-42's and they get pretty 'floppy' if I go under Drop D |
