Burning Flag
(Dropped-D Tuning) Quick lesson in drop tuning:
Drop D requires the lowest E string to be loosened (dropped)
slightly to create a power chord with all 3 of the top strings.
EXAMPLE
E------ E-----
B------ B-----
G------ G-----
D--2--- D--2--
A--2--- A--2--
E--0--- D--2--

A--0-6-0---X-X-X-X-X------guitar palm muted) ---
