Relation To Other Tunings
Drop D tuning is the most basic type of "drop 1" tuning, where 6th string is tuned down a whole step(a tone). A large number of other "drop 1" tunings can be obtained simply by tuning a guitar to drop D tuning and then tuning all strings down some fixed amount. Examples are the Drop D♭, Drop C, Drop B, Drop B♭, and Drop A tunings. All of these use the same fingerings as for drop D tuning.
