Band:   Machine Head

Song:   Beneath The Silt

Album:  Bloodstone And Diamonds (2014)

Tuning: Drop F# (Seven String) (F#, C#, F#, B, E, G#, C#)







Machine Head don't play in Drop B precisely... They are tuned to

Drop B but then tuned up 40 cents sharper... So even though not possible

it's kind of like they're playing in Drop B# (Between Drop B and C)





############

####NOTE####

############



This song is played in Drop F# on a seven string guitar.

The first 6 string are tuned to C# standard (+40 cents sharper)

The 7th string is then tuned to an octave below the 5th (F#)



On a Korg tuner it would look something like this



Tuner:

50                            x  50#

|--|--|--|--|-[-F#-]-|--|--|--|--|



The 'x' indicates where your tuning should be



Also comment, correct, and please, please rate!!!
