The "Baritone E Drone Power" tuning transforms your guitar into a low-end rhythm machine, perfect for expansive, heavy soundscapes and driving riffs. As described, it's "Super easy and fun to play. Can just rip out low the rhythm. The unison e gives it a cool ring." This tuning is essentially a massive E5 power chord (E and B) with a very deep B as the lowest note, creating an incredibly rich and resonant open sound.

Technical Analysis:

• The open strings are tuned to B1 E2 B2 E3 E3 B3. This configuration creates an open E5 power chord voicing, with the low B acting as a powerful drone or the 5th of an E chord.
• A unique feature is the unison E3 on both the 3rd and 2nd strings, which provides exceptional sustain and a thick, ringing quality to the sound.
• The intervals from low to high are: Perfect 4th (B1-E2), Perfect 5th (E2-B2), Perfect 4th (B2-E3), Unison (E3-E3), Perfect 5th (E3-B3). This arrangement is designed for maximum sonic impact.

Playing Potential:

• The open strings themselves form a massive E5 power chord. This makes it incredibly easy to create huge, droning sounds.
• One of the greatest strengths of this tuning is its suitability for one-finger barre chords. By simply barring across any fret, you instantly achieve a perfect 5th power chord (Root-5th-Root-5th-5th-Root) in the corresponding key. For example, a barre at the 3rd fret yields a G5 chord.
• The low B and the spread of E and B notes across the strings make it ideal for heavy riffs, atmospheric soundscapes, and anything requiring a deep, resonant foundation.

How to Tune:

Achieving the "Baritone E Drone Power" tuning from standard E Standard (E-A-D-G-B-E) requires significant down-tuning for most strings. Please be aware of string tension and consider heavier gauge strings, especially for the strings indicated.

• 6th String (Low E): Tune down 5 semitones from E to B1. (*Heavy gauge string strongly advised due to significant down-tuning exceeding 4 semitones*)
• 5th String (A): Tune down 5 semitones from A to E2. (*Heavy gauge string strongly advised due to significant down-tuning exceeding 4 semitones*)
• 4th String (D): Tune down 3 semitones from D to B2.
• 3rd String (G): Tune down 3 semitones from G to E3.
• 2nd String (B): Tune down 7 semitones from B to E3. (*Heavy gauge string strongly advised due to very significant down-tuning exceeding 4 semitones*)
• 1st String (High E): Tune down 5 semitones from E to B3. (*Heavy gauge string strongly advised due to significant down-tuning exceeding 4 semitones*)

6th String: B1 (The lowest B, providing a deep, resonant foundation.)

5th String: E2 (An octave below the standard low E, adding to the low-end power of the E5 chord.)

4th String: B2 (The 5th of the E chord, an octave higher than the lowest B.)

3rd String: E3 (The root of the E chord, creating a powerful unison with the 2nd string.)

2nd String: E3 (Also the root of the E chord, forming a distinct unison with the 3rd string for added thickness.)

1st String: B3 (The highest 5th of the E chord, completing the resonant E5 voicing.)
