Hello, been trying to learn this great one. Led's album Black Sand says that Kokee is tuned to Bb wahine (F Bb D F A C) down to the key of Ab. Does this mean to tune the guitar to F Bb D F A C, or lower it to Ab??? tuning?
Thanks

The CD version is in Ab, so you should tune everything down a whole step to Eb Ab C Eb G Bb.

We asked the same thing yesterday at Led's workshop at Gryphon's... He laughed and said it's something he made up - called it "R" tuning! Great song!
