evhua (1610)	Dear buddies… I think I won’t be the only one asking : ” What kind ot tuning is Eddie using in the whole record ? Especially, in AS IS …” maybe.. he’s using a DROP TO D thing… In my modest opinion, in the whole record , Eddie has a monster sound, heavy and sparkling at the same time… …kinda tough to describe with words…but I’m sure you understand what I mean… evhuaQuote

sbnitro (505)	from some of the pics from the first two shows his guitars are equipped with the D-tuna,so I’m guessing he’s dropping It down.I hope the next Guitar World will have a In depth Interview with EVH and a new VH song transcribed.Then we all will know. sbnitroQuote

wjamflan (1113)	As Is is played in A but sounds like it’s in B Flat on the record with a low B Flat for the low E string. Supposedly he has a new Drop To Hell device that we saw on the Two And A Half Men clip that could be used to lower the low E. But I don’t know if he uses the device like a trans trem to raise the pitch all the strings before lowering the low E. Basically, I don’t know how the damn thing works. Ha ha… If you want to know how it’s played, here’s my transcription of the main riff: ——–H—P————P——-P——–H—P—-H-P———H–SL—————H—P– E——————\|——————————————–\|——————————————\| B——————\|——————————————–\|——————————————\| G——————\|——————————————–\|——————-2———————\| D——————\|———————–0—1—0———-\|—–0—1—2—2———————\| A—–0—3—0—\|—5—0—3—0—————–3–0—\|—————————0—3—0—\| E——————\|———————————————\|——————————————\| ——-D—————-D——-D——-D————————-D————D——-D————- ——-+—4—+——-1—+—2—+—3—+—4—+–a——-1—+—2—+—3—+—4—+—- ———–P——-P——–H–SL—————SL———————-H—P—- E—\|——————————————\|——————————————-\| B—\|——————————————\|——————————————-\| G—\|———————————–2——\|—————-0————————\| D—\|———————0—1—2———-\|—2—1—0–(0)———————–\| A—\|—5—0—3—0————————\|—————————0—3—0—-\| E—\|——————————————\|——————————————-\| ———D——-D——–D———–D——–U——-D—U——–D————- ———1—+—2—+—3—+—4—+——–1—+—2—+—3—+—4—+—- “This hamburger don’t need no helper.” – DLR 5/17/15 wjamflanQuote
