They change. The 6-string. All those that change come down, so the guitar remains with less tension than in the standard tuning. If you pass, get back up to the note from the bottom: so that the string remains firmly in the stick. To get back to the normal tuning, use the Standard guitar tuner.

When used

It retains the great advantage of Drop D, the fifth chords with a single finger on the three serious strings but a tone lower with a heavier and darker sound. That's why it's so common with an alternative rock and metal.

"Toxicity," from System of a Down, is mainly composed of Drop C and Metallica recorded most of them "St. Anger" in this tuning. Nirvana accidentally reached her at a recording session: of these songs they only retained "Blew."

Races, tension and tuning

To put down so much tension to the guitar: about 20% in the first five strings and more than a third in the 6th. With a thin play, the strings are loose, buzzing and tuning moves as they play strong. The string manufacturers usually recommend games between .011-.056 and .012-.060 for Drop C and sometimes a complete tuning of the guitar: mast, string height and octavation.

Tips To Refine Your Guitar and guitar at Drop C

• First put down the five strings a tone and leave the 6th for the end: it's the most moves when the tension of the others changes.
• Check the 6th with its harmonic at 12 Stretch: it should sound just as the 4th string to the air (Do).
• If your guitar buzzes after you lower it, do not put up your action at a blind level: check with a technician or change to a bigger calibre.
• Fines with guitar in a position to play: with these loose strings, a little pressure on the mast changes the note.

Common problems with tuning

• The needle leapes between notes: He plays a single string, a little more soft, and waits for the sound to stabilize. The first instant of every note always sounds a little more sharp.
• Do not detect serious strings: The cell phone microphones miscapture low frequencies. Reach it to the instrument or play the harmonic half of the string (3): The tuning agent recognizes it as the same string and warns you that an octave sounds up.
• The air's tuned, but what you play sounds bad: Check that no string is at the wrong octave and that the strings aren't old. If you're still old, ask your teacher or a luthier to check the calibration of the instrument.
• It's clear right away: The new strings are stretching for several days and changes in temperature and moisture move tuning. Filling at the same place you will play.
• The browser does not order the microphone: Check the site's permissions into the browser's configuration and that no other apps are using the bug.
