    Just play it in B in standard tuning, it will be a semi up in pitch from the original but all the original voicing will be fine

    Like when people do Brightside, play it in D as per the record

    I'm now on the hunt for one for myself - very impressed with online demos and reviews .. 
    @Lestratcaster - you used one ?

  • Yes I have one that I bought recently.

    They're very good for live stuff, no need to change guitars etc. The tracking is decent, but what I will say is make sure you turn the amp up loud, if you can hear the unamplified acoustic strings ringing out it'll sound dissonant against the newer tuning you're using, so not ideal for home use.
