Currently I'm playing bass in standard.

The two I messed with though for my past bands on guitar were:

A E A D F# B

or

A E A D F B

These were both for heavier bands. Tuning down that low is tough though in terms of mechanics. I'd had to seek out these 68 - 14 gauge strings and get my guitar set up often. I was using a baritone guitar (longer neck) for a little to do this too but found it hard to get some of the faster fretwork done with.

Always? Open E is a slide tuning. Sounds like standard but you can pull off some whackier stuff.
