I have a Korg GA-30 tuner but dont know how to use it to help me get drop c tuning
I read on a website that if I hold down the twelveth fret on the six string
I could get it to sound like the fourth string for drop d tuning
It worked on the tuner it read the 6th string as 4D
but i can find a website that tells me how to use my tuner to get drop C tuning on all strings.
JUST TO LET YOU KNOW I GOT MY GUITAR FOR CHRISTMAS, BUT JUST NOW GOT SERIOUS WITH IT.
YOU GOT EXPLAIN IT TO ME LIKE A IDIOT
ALL I KNOW IS CHORDS SO FAR

I do not have a tuner like yours but I can let you know how to tune the guitar to Drop C.
To get Drop C Tuning from Standard Tuning, it would be as follows:
Standard Drop C
Top 6th E C
5th A G
4th D C
3rd G F
2nd B A
Low 1st e D
Here are how to play some power chords in Drop C:
D|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
F|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
C|-----0-----1-----2-----3-----4-----5-----6-----7-----8-----9-----10-----11-----12
G|-----0-----1-----2-----3-----4-----5-----6-----7-----8-----9-----10-----11-----12
C|-----0-----1-----2-----3-----4-----5-----6-----7-----8-----9-----10-----11-----12
C C# D D# E F F# G G# A A# B C
