It produces a chunky, dark sound.
And its not just all the new angry rap-rock band
that uses this simple tuning.
I know Bruce Springsteen uses it in one of his
acoustic-type songs for example.
Its really amazing what it can do, you can get
a totally different sound by just lowering the E-string one step!
