I m interested in playing many rock, punk, and blues songs. The onl;y thing that makes me want to destroy my guitar is when i see what kind of alternate tunings they're in. E.G. the song "Constant Sorrows" by The Soggy Bottom Boys is a heck of a blues song but i think the tuning was in something like DADGAD. Any help wuld be gr8.

DADGAD, leave the A,D,and G alone, drop your E strings to D, Drop your B string to A, also take a look at BEAL's thread on Open Tunings in the Open Discussion Forum.......

and you would think Paul could afford a lefthanded guitar!
