BF2S Forums how do i tuned guitar

I believe you tune it lower. Thus the "drop" D. I'm not entirely sure, however since I generally stick to regular tuning.

tune E down to D, leave the rest the same (D is two below E)

Correct.

and if that fails: Drop D Tuner

also: standard tuner for when you're done.

Magic.

But you don't need to Drop D if you want to play Bolero Of Fire on the Ocarina of Time.

if you want it so the strings are eBGDAD (high to low) heres how to tune the guitar with your ear. (not literally)
                                                    *  * < finger pluck them strings
finger pluck E and D at the same time (use thumb and index finger)
You should notice they make a wavering sound like wawawawawa (not the best description)
Tune the E string down while plucking these two strings until you cant hear the wavering sound.
That means you have drop D
To test it bar your index finger against the 2nd fret and the DAD (222) strings, it should sound exactly like the E chord. (022)

If you have a standard Tuner hold down the 2nd fret on the E string
Down tune untill it comes up as E
D is 1 step lower then E, each fret is 1/2 steps.

Hope that helps, sorry if its confusing
standard tuning = e
                           B
                           G
                           D
                           A
                           E
*edit, just read post below, and i said the wrong string to pluck sorry*
