Drop C tuning
Drop C tuning is an alternative guitar tuning where at least one string has been lowered to a C, but most commonly refers to CGCFAD, which can be described as D tuning with a 6th string dropped to C, or drop D tuning transposed down a whole step.

I’m tuned down to C standard: C, F, Bb, Eb, G and C, so my neck holds up really well. No neck problems at all, and the whole guitar sounds different.

The treble is best kept on around 6 or lower, or it can become a bit too sharp. You may want to increase the treble a bit more if you’re using high gain, to try and give your tone a bit more clarity. Having the bass on around 5 is a good place to start because it makes your tone thick but without being too muffled.

Small also discussed his pick of choice, saying: “It’s a Dunlop Ultex 1.14. I used to play Jazz IIIs like a nerd, like Eric Johnson, John Petrucci, and all those guys. “And then Dunlop said, ‘Hey you like Jazz III, you should try Ultex thing.

The mid controls the mid range frequencies between and I find on my start I have the Mid higher in relationship to high and low. But start in the middle and adjust each one higher or lower until you find a sound you like.

With a clean tone, the music will get into a different direction without having basically tuned to extreme settings based on the music you intend to play. Before you decide on the settings for the music to play, ensure that you first produce a clean tone from the basic settings on the amp.

If you’re looking to get a crystal clear clean tone on your electric guitar amplifier, then follow these steps. Set your amp to the clean channel if it has one. Turn the gain control all the way down. Some amplifiers are designed so that the volume completely disappears if you have the gain on 0, so if that’s the case, have it on 1 instead.

EQ or Tone Some guitar amplifiers don’t have separate treble, bass and mids controls, and instead have an EQ (equaliser) or tone control. Using these controls have a similar effect to adjusting the treble and bass. If you turn the control up, then you’ll put more emphasis on the treble, making your guitar sound sharper.

Ensure that the treble, mid and bass knobs are at the 12 o’clock. From most of the guitar amps, this is the neutral setting for the equalizer. Having the control knobs at medium will give you a good start in the setting as each and everything is at its central point without being based on any side.
