The note relationships are based on this chord in standard:

X -7 0 -2 -1 0

So each string that is within a few steps I tune that many steps down. So tune the G down to F and the B down to Bb. I'm not going to tune the A down to D, so I look at the other notes I have in the chord and I see the Bb is pretty close. So I tune up to Bb, and keep the low E an E because there is already an E in the chord.

It isn't super dissonant sounding, but it is a tad.

That's my goal with tunings- nothing super dissonant or super consonant.

I make a weird chord in standard then try to make an open tuning to make that chord.
