wierd tunnings. This song is in double drop D. Tune your

tune it on the 7th fret, to tune your high E hit the harmonic on the
12th fret of the 4th string (D) and tune the high E to match that pitch.

in an kind of "S" like position as to mute out the G string and leave the bottom two
strings (B and D) to ring out.
