Yep, you got it. The low bass D is pretty loose 'n floppy. Various threads
here and on the '-Nation about low D guage. .58? .60? Some even bigger. NOT
lighter. It would be even looser. I've heard Jerry D. keeps it the same as G
tuning. I think?

Rookie question but, I'm a headed the D way on my Johnson (never got to it).
As I understand it, from 6th String to 1st String, it's DADF#AD?
Do I tune BELOW G?
I can't see being able to tune UP to D from G . . .
But, before I start . . .
Three steps down on the 6th String G SEEMS kinda low and loosey . . . change
guage?
Lighter or heavier?
B bass is only one step down to A, kewl.
4th String D stays.
3rd String to F#, only half down, kewl.
2nd String B to A is kewl.
1st String stays the same.
Is that it?
