hey scalers.
so i've been playing around with tunings other then standard for the first time in over a decade.
and i came across this site
http://www.microtools.de/guitarcodex/gu ... ex_v2b.htm

super handy. tell it your tuning, it will tell you everything you will ever need to know.
also the ability to pick off notes etc.. (as i generally just start playing something, and then when i need to tab it for the band i haven't a clue what the chord is) and it will tell you what that chord your playing is.
