tab organizer...

I don't know about everyone else, but whenever I want to play a song and it's in a different tuning, I usually stick to that tuning for a while and try to find other songs in that same tuning before I go back to standard. It's extremely frustrating to search through hundreds of tabs just to find one with a Eb tuning or drop d tuning. Anyone know of a website or some sort of program that has the option of listing tabs by their tunings? I would find this extremely convenient.

lol if you think it takes to much to tune, look to see if theres no notes in the song that are lower than normal tuning, and if theres not play it normally.

Or else, just tune.

I hated tuning and retuning for different songs, which is why I now have 12 guitars. Most of them are in different tunings, except my acoustics, which are usually in standard.

my electrics are tuned to:
- EADGBE (2 guitars)
- DADGBE
- DAEAAE
- EbAbDbGbBbEb
- EADGCF
- DGDGBD
- EBEG#BE
- C#F#BEG#C#

my acoustics:
- EADGBE (2 guitars)
- DAEAAE

my basses:
- EADG
- BEADGC

It was a pain to retune so often, and once I used a tuning, I would end up writing some songs with it, so I would eventually buy another guitar to use with that tuning.
