I keep finding tabs that say Metallica's Dont Tread On Me is using this tunning, but I would bet my life the song is in standard. The same with Master of Puppets. WTF?

Members cloudnine Posted February 2, 2006 Members Share Posted February 2, 2006 When going down a scale or anything you always refer to it in the flat. It's just what I'm used to. Those songs are both in standard, the only pre-Black album downtuned song is The Thing That Should Not Be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, there is a difference between D# and Eb, ask a violinist. And you would refer to it based off the key signature the scale is in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea I don't know where they showed those songs in a lower tuning. Some good songs to learn could be Bleeding Me, or if you like Megadeth - Train Of Consequences or A Tout Le Monde. Try playing songs that should be in standard tuning and play them in Eb. You might find that you like them better 1/2 step down, I know I did. My guitar is setup and always tuned to Eb unless I tune down more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cloudnine Posted February 2, 2006 Members Share Posted February 2, 2006 Yep, me too. Everything sounds a little bit darker and more ballsy in Eb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members iclimbalot Posted February 2, 2006 Members Share Posted February 2, 2006 Some Rage Against the Machine songs are tuned down half a step, Bulls on Parade is great fun to play! Load and ReLoad albums and the God that Failed from the Black Album all good stuff to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
