For those who are about to enter the world of drop tuning for the first time, be aware that the reduced tension can play havoc with the guitar's action.

If you like a very low action, as I do, dropping the guitar down even a semitone can result in fret buzz as the neck relaxes and the action lowers even further. If you want to play with a drop tuning habitually, it's probably a good idea to get the guitar set-up for that tuning.

I'm sure all you experienced players know this already - this is just intended to help those new to the subject.
