  1. As you probably already know, standard tuning uses the following notes, from lowest pitch to highest: E A D G B E. The most common dropped tunings (and the different ways to write them out) are as follows: Drop D tuning: D A D G B E. Drop Db tuning / drop C# tuning: Db Ab Db Gb Bb Eb / C# G# C# F# A# D#. Drop C tuning: C G C F A D.

The Drop B tuning is mainly associated with metal genres. This tuning does two things to the guitar sound: it delivers much more bass and it gives possibilities to play chords like C sharp and B with open strings.
Here is how you tune the guitar: B F# B E G# C#. The drop B tunings deviate from the standard tuning on all six strings, but it helps you to know that the distance is three semi-tones on all strings except the 6th string (B), that is five semi-tones down from the standard E.
It is important that you turn the tuning pegs in a direction that decrease the string tension and not the opposite; otherwise, you could break the strings and possible damage the guitar.

Power chords

Checkout the complete guitar and bass TABS for Witchcult Today: The Doom Metal Scale Guide v2. The exact tuning would be B F# b E G# C# from low to high. I want to know if the same guitar scales you play in standard tuning apply to this tuning i do use the only scales i know which are the major and minor scales and some blues they sound ok like they don't sound off which is not what I'm saying just can they be used or is there a totally different scales made for this tuning? B tuning (B standard tuning or Baritone tuning) is an alternate tuning for a six-string guitar with the strings tuned to B E A D F# B. It means, that you should tune your guitar two and a half.

As you may notice, you can to a high degree handle the key of B as the key of D on a standard tuned guitar. The only exception is the 6th string.
