Questions
What tuning is ¡Dos! in?
Green Day recorded ¡Dos! (2012) in E Standard at concert pitch (A 440), measured by TuneLit on the CD. See You Tonight uses E Standard +34 ¢; Makeout Party uses E Standard −12 ¢.
Why does ¡Dos! sound out of tune with my guitar?
See You Tonight sits about 34 cents sharp (A ≈ 449), so a guitar tuned to A 440 clashes with it. The Tune buttons on this page set the tuner's reference to match the record, song by song, so you only tune the strings.
