Hello Mike, I have a question regarding "The Red"'s tuning. I know how to tune down to C# standard, the problem I have is in making it sound good. How do you do that? The lowest I've gone that still produced a well-sounding guitar was Drop C#. Anything below that sounds muddy and awful, and that includes D standard. How did you make your guitar sound good, despite the low tuning? Was it a specific range of gauged strings or what did you do to make it sound well?
