*NOTE:
The guitar can also be tuned differently, but only for the rhythm guitar.
Get your tuning hands ready. First, tune down to D-tuning. Then tune your
guitar ONE FULL STEP DOWN!!! The only thing is you would have to play the starting
riff a little differently. Any other information would be appreciated.
