Drop B tuning
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dropped B tuning is an alternate tuning for a 6 string guitar where the strings are tuned to BF#BEG#C#. This is a "drop 1" tuning in the key of C# (i.e. tune the whole guitar down a minor third from standard tuning, then tune the 6th string a whole step down). As a result, it uses the same fingering as drop D tuning and drop C tuning.
Bands that have used Drop B
- A Day To Remember on their album What Separates Me From You
- Alter Bridge (on the songs "Coming Home" and "Home")
- Architects uses this tuning on all of their albums. However, on more recent albums, they have used a variation of this tuning in which they tune the lowest string to Ab.
