CFA#D#GC Guitar Tuner

CFA#D#GC | CFB♭E♭GC Standard Down 2 (metal) - Guitar tuning, chords & scales

Description - Standard Down 2 (metal)

The tuning is commonly used by metal and hard rock artists due to the dark sound it produces. It also makes bending easier for the player than in E standard using the same gauge of strings. Heavier gauge strings can be used in order to maintain tension in the strings. It is possible to play without them but difficulty can be experienced as it becomes quite easy to unintentionally bend notes and chords out of tune. However the ease of bends can be desirable depending on playing style of the musician.
