THE TUNEGUITAR GUIDE
A setup plan for Still Loving You
What to check for this arrangement
The source part is named after a guitar model and uses half-step-down targets. That label does not mean the model determines the tuning: the six notes in the arrangement do. You can check another suitable six-string instrument against the same targets while keeping its own intonation and string-response observations separate.
Which guitar part does this page cover?
The selected part is Gibson Flying V in the linked Scorpions arrangement. The table exposes the part alternatives retained in our source record; repeated targets can still belong to different musical lines. It is not a complete inventory of every performance or recording.
| Source part label | Open notes, low side first | Use |
|---|---|---|
| Gibson Flying V | D♯2 · G♯2 · C♯3 · F♯3 · A♯3 · D♯4 | Selected here |
Source labels are preserved as supplied. The source record was last checked on 2026-09-12; this editorial update does not claim a fresh audit of the external arrangement. No notation, lyrics or recorded audio are reproduced.

Plan the next song without guessing
This comparison calculates changes from this selected source part to the other stored arrangements. It compares open notes only. Check any capo, A4 reference and instrument change separately; unchanged targets still deserve a quick drift check.
| Next source arrangement | String changes |
|---|---|
| Basket Case · Green Day | No open-string target change |
| Beat It · Michael Jackson | No open-string target change |
| Every Breath You Take · The Police | No open-string target change |
If your lesson disagrees
Check the named part and recording version before choosing between the sources. A missing capo value means it has not been verified here, not that a capo is forbidden. Use Custom strings for a genuinely different target sequence, or prepare a correction with a source link. Do not retune solely because a processed guitar sound seems lower.
