Drop F# Heaviest Guitar Riffs

[@alexanderd.f.157]

One of my favourite songs in drop F# is Hole in the Earth by Deftones, which is funny because it's actually high enough that it could be played in drop D on a six strings

[@jeremyramirez7275]

Hole in the Earth is in Drop F# in a 7 strings (F# C# F# B E A# D#) like C# standard in 6 strings (3 semitones down) and the first two strings tuned like Eb (a semitone down from E standard)and the F# on the 7 string (3 semitones down starting from Drop A 7 strings) different notes of Drop F# in 6 strings (F# C# F# B D# G#) like 8 semitones down from Drop D… gauge strings and placement of almost same notes but in different strings change the tone a lot.

ngl i was expecting coven by thornhill or any other old song in F# from them

[@garren_57]

i love learning thornhill riffs, they are all deceptively difficult

[@jacketater4053]

ERRA mentioned raaaaahhhhh

[@Looped_again]

I don’t know what it is but I don’t really like them recorded but I just saw them live and they are insanely good

[@UDMH]

ERRA the goat

[@AnthonyLambson]

Not gonna lie, that limp bizkit riff hits pretty hard

[@_gosoka]

I got a bit confused when you started playing Termina, for a second I fogot where I was 😅 But yeah, that's a really cool riff.

[@justinsundstrom8976]

Nik would agree.

[@shemshate]

I think the breakdown from ragnarok is even more sick. The intro/primary riff is fine i guess

[@sakirin8085]

hell yeahh volumes

[@str11pes]

love drop F#. i love sneaking a few chromatic F# in anything I'm playing

[@absence7445]

I'd have gone with the river immediately after the Silent Life one you chose since that one uses the low F#, great list otherwise!

Awesome vid Beana, we need an updated Drop E video next, just 8 string riffs 🤘🏻

[@joshpeterson2203]

Whoa! Deftones played that low? Gotta check that out! And you sold me on within destruction I want to hear that one now

[@belleybutton4335]

Oh brother they go lower on Ohms, Spell of Mathematics is played on a 9 string tuned to C#0

[@cloneboy42]

@@belleybutton4335 C#1, not C#0

[@ZPRNOW]

[@belleybutton4335]

@@cloneboy42 Ahh my bad homie you right

[@Creature1009]

They started using 8 strings in standard F# on diamond eyes in 2010. Before that they did drop F# on Saturday Night Wrist. Since then they’ve used drop E on Koi No Yokan and gone down to C#1 on a 9 string for one song on ohms. They been playing low.

My favorite tuning 🤘

[@FuzzImp]

When u do be getting Aluminaughty 🫣🤩

[@t-liminal]

F sharf is my favorite note 🤪

[@cambodianz]

If anyone is interested in some other songs in this tuning from a less technical and more visceral perspective, the mighty ISIS have three songs in this tuning; "Collapse and Crush", "Holy Tears" and "Threshold of Transformation" (F#-F#-B-E-G#-b). A bit more sludge with some post rock/metal elements (Neurosis meets Tool meets Explosions in the Sky).

[@xHRVSTRx]

OKAY 😱

[@AngelJamieJules]

Ragnarok is a goated F♯ dj0nt

[@fgcfdfj432]

Drop F# is a tuning for nearly every metal band

[@alexis.0569]

First 😂 Heavy ass riff time >:) And yooo, Termina

[@_rekak]

Andrew, im sorry, but this mix is so bad

[@5urg3x]

Drop Q flat is heavier

[@MegaLaban12345]

Consistent lack of vibrato and cutting bends short.
