Hello, I was wondering if anyone could provide some steps for me to tune to this alternate tuning. I've tried a million other sites but no one will directly guide me through the steps. I need to know the frets to match the strings to. I already know its (B F# B E G# C#). Any information would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

This is going to make your strings really floppy, especially your sixth. Are you sure you want this sound? So much of what's played scorditura could be easily played with standard fingering if the player would only invest a little thought.

Anyway, if your guitar is already in standard tuning, you can match the tenth fret of your lowest string with your open fifth string. Now you have B A D G B E. Then match the eighth fret of your fifth string to the open fourth string. Now you have B F# D G B E. Then match the eighth fret of your fourth string to the open third string. Now you have B F# B G B E. Then match the seventh fret of your fifth string to the open second string. Now you have B F# B E B E. Then match the eighth fret of your second string to the open first string. Now you have B F# B E G# E. Then match your open first string to the fifth fret of your second string. Now you have B F# B E G# C#.

I dont know if you might be in the market,for another axe,but you should check out this site(www.rondomusic.net).Theyve got some awsome deals on 7-string and 6-string (barritone)guitars.Man the prices are a seriuos blessing on your bootey(I hope I spelled that right).I suggest you check the web for "reviews" on theyre products,youll be stunned (pleasently).I have one of theyre 5-string (75-fender)jazz copies (fretless) and it is un-believable,at least look you wont be sorry. Be Blessed Chaz Taaaaggggg Scotch,Youre it.
