Hi.

Im having this problem with the lowest string. When the lowest string is tuned to A# and im doing a powerchord or just hit like a open A# chord it sounds sharp and out of tune.

But when i drop the low string down about -30 cents it sounds fine and in tune.

Its intonated correctly, its about 1 cent sharp above the 12th fret.

Im using a brand new LTD ec-1000. And i know the scale lenght isnt optimal for this kind of tunings, but Björn from in flames uses this tuning on the same scale lenght and it Sounds awesome.

Im using 12-60 daddario Exl148 strings.

Am i fucked because of the scale lenght or is it possible to make it sound correct with a 24.75 inch guitar.
