    if you're getting it from GTW, the tabs says "high to low", meaning from your high E string to your low E string.

    also if you're getting it from GTW, there's a tuning guide with instructions. but since a lot of people don't go looking (sorry, in a bad mood), here are the instructions:

    How it differs from standard tuning:
    Lower the 1st and 5th strings one whole step.
    Raise the 6th string one and a half steps.


    How To Do It:
    Match the 3rd fret of the 2nd string to the open 1st string.
    Match the 7th fret of the 5th string to the open 4th string.
    Finally, match the open 6th string to the open 5th string.
  • its (from your low E to high e) G - G - D - G - B - D........i think.....lol........im drunk
