You tune your low E down two half steps, to the D note.

And No, about capo. It takes 2 secs to tune down anyways.

Wait, no, you don't tune the other strings to the D. You just tune the E to D. All the other strings stay the same. Instead of EADGBE it's DADGBE.

Don't touch the other strings! Just the low E, two steps down!
