5 Reasons Why I Don't DOWNTUNE or DROP TUNE

WATCH NEXT - I FINALLY DOWNTUNED:    • Why I Downtuned My Guitar to C# Sharp  

It seems like most metal guitarists and bands either downtune or drop tune their guitars.

This is something I have never done, and in the video I'm sharing 5 reasons why I continue to play in standard tuning.

I'm not completely against downtuning or drop tuning. But I think when you hear the reasons I don't, you'll understand. And you may even consider going back to standard tuning.

One point I make in the video is this...

Playing lower notes do not automatically equate to a heavier sound.
And I feel like too many guitar players get caught in that trap of always playing the heaviest (or rather, LOWEST) note possible.

This limits your playing!!

I also give you some tips for both 6 string guitar and 7 string guitar. I also tell you how to use your bass player (or your bass if you play bass) to make your overall sound heavier!

Watch my video and comment below and let know me if you downtune or drop tune, what key, or if you play standard tuning.

Keep it Metal,
Jason
