I lold

make sure and start from the high (high in pitch) E. leaving it last could break it -not so much on guitar, on fiddle this happens all the time. smaller strings always need tension relief first!

Jesus Christ... please tell me you are NOT serious.

You will hardly see many tunings that are used that are higher then E Standard.
You tune DOWN never up, unless instructed otherwise. If you need to tune to dropped
D for example you would take your high E (6th string) and pluck the D (4th String) and match
the pitch with the 6th string by tuning DOWN. It doesn't matter if it's an electric or an acoustic
you always tune DOWN.

At this point you would be in dropped D, for here you would match your high E to your Low E (which
is not a D) then from there you would tune DOWN on your 2nd string (b) to match your 5th String (a)
to make the tuning complete - DadgaD

sounds bizarre to tune up to d

anyways to a low d tuned guitar from E

tune ur low e string #6 down 1 whole step

to ur d string which is ur #4 string till they

are the same pitch/octave very ez

i have to lol cuzz he might not have it strung the correct way it is

clockwise when ur holding it to loosin them thuss drop tuning down

tuning w/e good luck lol metel acoustic lil korn maybe

If you really want to tune it UP to D (which would probably sound very special), you can better remove the E string, and replace it with a regular D string.

Everyone here is saying tune down -- why don't you try tuning up a few more times and see why people are saying this?

if you insist on tuning up i suggest replacing your e string with a d string. btw you wont get the sound you are looking for unless you have the low octave and the high octave. may i ask what you are going to play?

i promise the E goes down 1 step rather than up 6 steps.

Rofl at this idiot, just let him fucking tune up all he wants.
