The Bitter End.
At least over 95% correct. Brian uses his Gibson SG and Stefan uses his Gibson Les Paul
Custom. This will be a mixture between the live and the studio versions.
BRIAN TUNING: F Bb Eb Ab C C (down-tune your high E string to match
your B string and stick a capo on the
1st fret)
STEFAN TUNING: Eb Bb Eb Ab C C (down-tune your low E string to a D
and then your high E string to the B
again and stick a capo on the 1st fret)
