Tuning to drop C, B, and A#

[muse_chevelle]

omg how in the hell do you get below drop C. I can tune all but an F in drop C. how do you do it?

Also how do you get it even lower than that?
Like drop B and A#?

thats a bit harsh. actually, i do it with a really cheap 6 string.
it does require some adjustments to your gutiar to get a good tone and action, so dont attemp this if your a begginner and just want to play take this life.

start by de-tuning as close to Bb-F-Bb-Ab-G-C (A#) as you can get
then little by little, with a screwdriver, raise the saddle of your guitar, a LITTLE higher at a time, which will detune your strings a bit, so after each saddle adjustment, re-tune. this way you'll know when you got a good spot.

the saddle (for the begginners) is http://i35.tinypic.com/2zi81e8.jpg

hopefully this better answered your question.
