Unread post by 2stepingJ » Thu Mar 04, 2004 9:07 pm

... oh yeah baby.... so I've finally gotten used to all of these alternate tunings and what not and am loving playing the acoustic part to this song.... if you haven't checked it out, you must do so... Led Zeppelin's "The Rain Song"... CHECK IT OUT!

.... there's also a standard tuning on this site as well... great site if I may say so myself.... anyways, enjoy and let me know what you think... peace
