1/2 step downward

hey guys, just wondering if anyone on the boards plays a half step down on a regular basis. Ive been doing it a lot lately. ive found it easier to play, easier on my voice, and for some reason seems easier to strum. haha. might be psychological.

but anyways is this a good idea for me to keep going or do u recomend standard?

if you are playing by yourself thats cool, but if you ever play with anyone else, dont expect them to adjust for you

I hate tuning down a half step , it happens but not alot , it has a too awkward tone for me , i don't like it too much , so i would take standard tuning over a half step down any day

i used to play a lot of alice in chains, so i would usually tune down for that...and i usually keep my electric down a half step unless, like jack said, i'm playing with some other people
