I concur.

I always prefer to tune down to C if the strings can take it.

Isn't that basically open D but everything down a step? What's it matter other than some lower tones?

I really like standard but tune the B string down a step. So you got EADGAE. Makes standard barre chords sound pretty nice as well as some other stuff. And it's easy to tune back to standard!

Yep. Maintains the same intervals, but I like the sound of C better than D. Try it for yourself.

Well, yeah, because they're both open timings for major chords, which all have same intervals in them, root-maj3rd-5th. But I just love playing in C. Probably because A:) it's a little heavier without being ridiculous, and B:) I learned music in a more classical context, where C is the key where you always start out.

Beat ya to it. see my earlier post on pg.3 :P

Randomly tuned my guitar to B-F#-B-D-F#-C# and it's quite fun.

I'd recommend trying it out, or DADFAE to keep it in a more "normal" guitar range.
But, you know, it probably sounds better lower

i'm digging on dadfad super hard myself

So many tunings.lol I'm going to have to come back and try these.

Seriously, check this tuning out. It's really inspiring for me.

Might have to try. I have a strat close enough to the low tuning to give it a spin.

Double post. KBITheCrowing's tuning is really cool.

yeah, i've been writing in that tuning for the past week. very cool.

Try DADFAG.

Preferred tuning of latent homosexual dads everywhere.
