Rob scallon got me into this tuning, then trying to learn never meant. Harmonics sound so good. Any math rock band suggestions? I’ve only dabbled in the genre from Midwest bands.
Late af and kind of a pointless comment but I just found this video and noticed the riff sounds really similar to one of our demos ua-cam.com/video/ApZ_8gFU4YQ/v-deo.htmlsi=PW3HeDC3uoD2UDCp If you want a “full version” Just a demo so not very well made but it’s whatever
I use a tuning that consists of alternating minor and major 3rds, which makes a F#-11 chord. (F#-A-C#-E-G#-B). Learning chords and scales is very easy, and it opens up a lot of possibilities with natural harmonics. I have a dedicated guitar setup just for this.
The song that got me into this tuning was The Bones of Baby Dolls by Acid Bath. That song and majority of the songs off of Songs for the Deaf by Queens of the Stone Age. Good shit fr 👍
My favorite alt tunings: Open D (DADF#AD) Open C (CGCGCE) DADGAD DADGCE (tuning used in Sun Kil Moon's "Half Moon Bay") CGCGCF (Robbie Basho, "Green River Suite") DADF#AC# AEBEBE (weird tuning I made up, tons of fun)
DADFCE is gonna give you lots of "extended chords" if you use the regular major/minor shapes we're used to in standard. One of my favorite alt tunings is due to Yvette Young, of the band Covet, which is FACGBE, or open Fmaj9. The top 3 strings become triads, obviously, and then the 3 strings naturally lend themselves to extension notes.
I'm 37 taught myself as a teen in dadfce and then relearned standard tuning in college. A lot of my songs are in that tuning, thanks for sharing the other artist that plays in it as well
Yea a guy who has a serious hard on for hendrix (ain't dissing hendrix he was an absolutely phenomenal guitar player) ain't gonna have a clue of lower tunings. Try down another octave, then it's getting close 🤣
I use to have my electrics tuned so different most people hated playing mine because they didn’t know how to play with said tuning, but some of the riffs I could play and sounds I could put out was just jaw dropping. Kinda why I love guitar because there’s so much you can do that’s so unique.
so much respect for dropping a Gretsch down to B. I had an electromatic with a bigsby that I tuned down to B. had to use some pretty heavy strings to keep it stable
SONIC YOUTH taught me EVERYTHING I kno about alternate tunings. Octaves and unison strings! I'll def have to scope that 1st one out in this video though!
One time my friends and I were hanging outside the community center taking turns jamming on my guitar. All of a sudden this older guy comes over and asks to play. No problem I hand it over he sets it to a tuning none of us knew about, played a song and left! All we knew were basic chords at that point. I forgot to ask him to tune it back and we're stuck with a guitar that now speaks a different language lol. It was back in 2007 so there were no smart phones to save us. Still makes me laugh till this day 😂
@@spraynard9529 He kinda just said "Yea, now lets try this" it was so random. My friends and I laughed about it for years. I used to live in Takoma Park Md, people there are VERY well to do but lets just say they're pretty eccentric. Some people there are just in their own world hahaha
Ernie ball Mammoth Slinky work perfectly for that. I have them on my Flying V in C standard ( Half step above). Similar tension to B standard on a 25.5 " scale like on a strat. I just play my 7 string if I wanna go lower tho
I remember I stumbled upon DADFCE one day randomly while trying to tune to DADGAD and I fell in love with it I don’t mess with it too often but it’s real pretty
New Standard Tuning, aka Guitar Craft tuning. It simulates all-fifths and was developed by prog rock legend Robert Fripp, guitarist of King Crimson and also did the guitar parts for Heroes by David Bowie, among many, many more things.
Tried tuning to baritone standard, ended up breaking my hello kitty squire
Sorry that must suck
HOW
the strings? or the guitar. because i don’t know how the fuck that can break a guitat
You broke the guitar by losing tension of the strings? Man, how...
How is spaghetti tension strings breaking a guitar?
Midwest emo with Baritone standard, unironically really good
Pantera on Baritone tuning sounds like shit though
Interesting. If you raise the low E string up 1/2 step to F, check out the harmonics. You have a full set of harmonics chords.
u should listen to vs self then
F A C G C E is one of my favorites of all time. classic math rock tuning
C# G# C# F A# D# is another great one, drop C# with a 1/2 step flat 3rd string
dont forget DAEAC#E
WAS JUST ABOUT TO DROP THIS ONE LOL

@moistmanm9 me running a 8 string bass through 5 octavers
@moistdaddy9I play the rubber band. Take that for low tunings
@@geetarplayer3611double drop D is just 1 octave lower or so, if a bass is 1 octave lower than a guitar 4 octaves would be unhearable basically

I like CGCGBE tuning an Alex G classic and every time I hear it I am teleported back to high school
I prefer the classic CGCGCE open C tuning, but sometimes I’ll make it CGCFCE.
“Baritone standard is one of the lowest-possible tunings on a guitar”
Me: *laughs in 9-string*
Even on a 6 string you can gow lower without ridiculous gauge strings
that baritone he is using can go to some double C#1 or even some Ab0
*laughs in bass*
*laughs in 10-string I'm building from scratch"
@@AotearoaLamborghini laughs in 420 string bass that doesnt exist
DADGAD is one of my personal favorites.
And then hit a big open chord fretting 2nd fret on G string (A Note).
Tons of octave vibes in that one.
I play around in that tuning because of Pink Floyd’s poles apart song. To me it sounds like wind chimes and you can get some beautiful sounds
isn't that open g
Celtic tuning. Outstanding.
@@easyethanol6611 no
Dadgad is the opeth tuning isnt it?

CGCFCE is my go to alternate tuning for acoustic stuff. It's absolutely stunning, and Nick Drake used it a lot
Got one Guitar that I keep in that tuning all the time, it‘s just the best
nick drake is so underrated he had such a unique play style
I use cgcfgc. It's fun
The "dad face" tuning gives u an Open Dm9 in an uncommon voicing for guitar , that sounds awesome btw
Its one of my favorites 😁
Baritone standard is so vibrant yet moody 🎸
I recently came across C# standard, and I'm obsessed. I love hearing regular chords performed in a low register like that.
God bless
Best tuning for everything. New wave to death metal
The song that got me into this tuning was The Bones of Baby Dolls by Acid Bath. That song and majority of the songs off of Songs for the Deaf by Queens of the Stone Age. Good shit fr 👍
Drop C# is my favorite tuning, C# standard is a good one though!
Sabbath and Bolt Thrower play in c#
I was today years old when I realized Limp Bizkit used C# Standard
Drop C is my favourite right now, it’s D standard with the low string tuned down and anything you know in drop D can be transferred
D Standard (Whole Step Down) is my favorite. Works well even on my shorter scale guitar and sounds great even on lights!
It's what I play I too. I also like c# standard on my bass sounds warm and full
I’ve been using D Standard and Drop C a lot lately
I keep one of my guitars in C standard since I'm a bit of a Queens of the Stone Age fan, it's quite fun
DADGAD is one I like to fuck around with from time to time.
all these tunings are UNREAL 😱 thank you sm for sharing!
Can’t believe I found an official UA-cam comment with so few likes. 🤔
@@ItsXosh they comment a lot more than they used to it seems and under pretty obscure videos
@mikeypispoco
3rd
DROP B AND A GOATS 🔥🔥🔥🔥🤟🤟🤟
Opeth used a similar tuning to "DADFCE"
They used "DADFAE" on Ghost Reveries and it sounds HAUNTING
I was gonna say the same thing, glad to see a fellow Opeth fan 🤝
I don’t often hear B standard talked about like this. I just love it for metal
Will Paquin needs more love man
omg these both sound so cool, dadfce has it’s on vibe, and baritone fits the stuff i typically go for
I have my main 4-string bass tuned to B Standard, it's the swiss knife of bass tunings, it can literally do anything
Dude just get a 5 string. It does the exact same thing plus one more
Cant do 90% of metal so i wouldn't say "can do literally anything" maybe "literally anything created before 1970"
The band dystopia tuned the 6dtrimg guitars and 4steing bass down to a stanrdard 😂
My favorite alt tunings:
Open D (DADF#AD)
Open C (CGCGCE)
DADGAD
DADGCE (tuning used in Sun Kil Moon's "Half Moon Bay")
CGCGCF (Robbie Basho, "Green River Suite")
DADF#AC#
AEBEBE (weird tuning I made up, tons of fun)
B tuning is used a lot in melodic death metal (Amon Amarth, At the gates etc.)
He doesn't know that exists LOL
Carcass and Cryptopsy
Hypocrisy too. But i guess the kid in the video never heard of anything other than rock. He seems kinda pretentious doesn’t he?
@@cömerdark6524glad there are other people that feel the same way about this guy.
@@ardatukenmez2890 Hendrix and SRV are cool and all but he acts like they're the only guitarists that exists sometimes LOL.
Sick Guitar Man 🎸🤘!!!!!
Sick Playing Man🎸🤘!!!!!
Keep Rocking On 🎸🤘!!!!!
Open C is such a great tuning that Devin Townsend primarily uses
I've never heard of DADFCE, thanks for posting about it. It inspired me to tune one of my 7 strings to AEADFCE, and it's awesome!
CGCEGD also goes really well. I found the tuning through periphery’s song scarlet.
D standard is my preference. Lovely sounds
Same. That and Drop C
DADFCE is gonna give you lots of "extended chords" if you use the regular major/minor shapes we're used to in standard.

D Standard and A Standard have been my primary tunings for a few years now and I love it
Mike Mushok from Staind uses a baritone and his own tuning it’s actually one of the if not heaviest tunings there is it’s G# D# A# C# F# A#
Only on Break the Cycle. He switched to a regular guitar tuned to Eb Standard for 14 Shades of Gray.
I'm 37 taught myself as a teen in dadfce and then relearned standard tuning in college. A lot of my songs are in that tuning, thanks for sharing the other artist that plays in it as well
Guy forgot that half of every metal bands plays in Drop A or lower
7 string Drop A, though. 6 String Drop A isn’t super common.
@@subplzorideleteurchannel7193yes it is
Eb standard and baritone standard are the greatest two guitar tunings ever
Currently like to play my guitar in (D-A-E-A-C#-E) tuning, lot of midwest emo play in this tuning
my favorite tuning of all time, half step down from this is great too
Have you tried EAeG#Be used in the summer ends
love to hear everlong on baritone tuning
"B standard is one of the lowest tunings possible" 💀💀💀
Yea a guy who has a serious hard on for hendrix (ain't dissing hendrix he was an absolutely phenomenal guitar player) ain't gonna have a clue of lower tunings. Try down another octave, then it's getting close 🤣
Laughs in double drop D
on a regular 6-string guitar, it might be
@@klabokk i play drop G# standard on my 6 string, it can get lower than B standard
@@GFGRRD What gauge are your strings?
This kid can play! Has great approach to his riffs!
Open G is one of my go-tos but a buddy of mine introduced me to a style called Orkney or Sawmill tuning (C#G#D#G#CD#) very twinkly, very Midwest emo
consider dropping that c to an a#
You have perfect hair for a sick fade
Clean vs dirty tone test
this guy has no idea how to make a dirty tone
“Baritone standard is one of the lowest possible tunings on guitar”
Sleep Token: exist
C# standard is also underrated
THANK YOU, THATS MY GO-TO TUNING AND I NEVER HEAR PEOPLE TALK ABOUT IT
It works for me as well, especially for bass guitar.
I like it in my bass sounds warm and full
The first thing that comes to mind for riffs in C# Standard is Limp Bizkit
will paquin is such a criminally underrated artist im so glad u mentioned him here!
I just got a new stratocaster yesterday
Congrats brother

B standard is the PERFECT guitar tuning.
so much respect for dropping a Gretsch down to B. I had an electromatic with a bigsby that I tuned down to B. had to use some pretty heavy strings to keep it stable
let's not forget Ichika's ethereal tunings as well
this man never fully opens his eyes
unbearable rich kid smirk, yuuck
Open tunings I like a lot, fun for playing around with a slide. Open E is one of my favorites, makes me feel like I'm talking to angels.
Now get an 8 string and play double drop d
Dude has 29.75" baritone, that thing will go that low and lower, eric from loathe has one and takes it down to double drop c#
I play in A standard on my 27" baritone. You can go much lower drop C# 🤣
SONIC YOUTH taught me EVERYTHING I kno about alternate tunings. Octaves and unison strings! I'll def have to scope that 1st one out in this video though!
No way this dude just said “Baritone Standard” 💀
FACGCE tuning is Midwest emo perfection
Lowest possible tunings? Dude Andrew Baina plays in drop E on the regular 🤣
*Lowest possible tuning if you aren't into metal.
Also I'm pretty sure this guy does stuff like this to get comments, so, ya know.
@@plantain.1739 why does genre have to do with it? Most of the beautiful sounding clean sections I've written as of late have been in A standard

Never heard of baritone standard but as soon as you played through the open tuning, I thought “Huh… that sounds like Leadbelly.”
Thanks for bringing value
Sounds really good! 👍

DADFAE is good. The only example of it being used that I know of is opeth, but I use it for math rock riffs.
