What does drop-D tuning mean?
This question was asked by one of you. First of all, it is important to know what the Standard Tuning for a guitar is. It is EADGBE. The first letter on the left represents the 6th string (the thickest, lowest sounding string), and the last letter on the right represents the 1st string (the thinnest, highest sounding string).Of course to achieve this tuning, you have to tune the guitar by turning the tuning knobs at the end of the guitar. If you have a tuner, you can use it to help you find the correct note for each string.
For Drop-D tuning, all you have to do is to "drop" the 6th string to a D note. So, Drop-D tuning looks like this: DADGBE. Notice the word "drop"? So, logically, you tune down (loosen) from the standard tuning of E to a D. If you try to tune up to the D (tighten), I am pretty certain the string will snap on you.
There you go, this is what is meant when someone says he/she is using a Drop-D tuning. There are other alternate tunings (that's what all other tunings apart from the Standard Tuning are called), but I'm not expert on that. My advise to all beginners would be to learn how to play the guitar on standard tuning.
