"Price to Play"
Staind
Tuning: Guitar 1: Drop-D, one half step down (Db, Ab, Db, Gb, Bb, Eb)
Guitar 2: (Gb, Db, Ab, Db, Gb, Bb)
Notes: Ok, if you follow Mike Mushok's playing at all, you know he loves to tune
extremly low. But, typically there is a guitar in Drop-D tuning a half step down
the track somewhere, so the songs can be played with a normal guitar. Mushok pla
Guitar 2's part live, but I'm going to show you both ways (because most of us ca
buy that new Ibanez Mike Mushok Baritone Guitar for the low tunings he uses.)
The Sound: nice, nu-metal distortion with the eq controls roughly at;
High: 5, Medium: 7, Low: 7, and a gain of about 6 or 7. Experiment, and see if
can find a better sound. This is just what the recording sounds like to me...
