Tuning:Here is Stephen's REAL tuning G#,C#,F#,B,E,G#,C#. Thats 4 1/2 steps down
from regular tuning and 2 1/2 steps down for 7 string. I play these on a regular
Guitar so I don't have the extra C# but it still sounds 99-100% correct.
 
 
Verse
There are no open strings during the verse thats just Frank.

Not to nitpick but the tuning is 1 1/2 steps below standard 7 sting tuning. Great rant though!
