Stay or Leave Tabs

Unread post by steviesouthpaw » Wed Jul 29, 2009 5:19 pm

I have never known Dave to play an altered tuning with the exception of Drop D. Does he really play Stay or Leave in raised B tuning? I'm sure it can be played this way, but does anyone know for sure this is how HE plays it?

Go see him live. You'll see him switch guitars a lot. He uses Raised B, Drop-D, 1/2 Step Down, Baritone tuning (Whatever that is called), and High D. Some examples of songs:

Raised B: Stay or Leave, You Never Know, Oh, Lying in the Hands of God, and Sister
1/2 step down: Last Stop
Baritone tuning: Space Between, I Did It, What You Are, So Right, Louisiana Bayou, Smooth Rider, Some Devil
High D: Baby Blue, Shotgun, Idea of You, Falling Off the Roof, and even Time Bomb evolved out of a jam that Dave used this on.

Busted Stuff is also in some weird tuning. I'm sure there's other songs I'm forgetting about, but Dave uses a lot of different tunings.
