Get the guitar mug.This phrase is used to either be emo or to mock an emo kid. It describes the classic emo musician and poignantly mocks the ever-so-sad emo song.
A: I ran out of black eyeliner this morning, and my new hair isn't as black as I wanted it.
B: This is such a cruel world...
Bystander: Aw, I'm gonna tune my guitar to sad.

Get the Tune my guitar to sad mug.n. A guitar with an additional string, most often tuned to a B (one fourth below the low E string). Originally used by several jazz artists to extend their ability to chord and play basslines. Was not introduced to the mass market until the early 1990's by Steve Vai.
The instrument did not gain in popularity until bands such as Korn began using them in the mid 1990's. For this reason, the seven string guitar is often erroneously viewed as just a "nu metal" fad.
Currently, seven strings can be seen in a variety of roles in various hard rock and metal subgenres. This is often to achieve crushing lows without the loss of any solo range from detuning. Though widely accepted within these niche roles, it is rarely seen elsewhere.
A number of guitar manufacturers are currently producing this unique instrument. Ibanez, who started the trend, still turns out new models fairly regularly. Schecter has a wide variety of models to choose from. ESP and Agile (an internet distributor) offer sevens with a 27" scale length for better note clarity.

Maestro Alex Gregory: I created a seven string guitar prototype for rock music long before you, Vai.
Steve Vai: Yes, but it was never produced. Plus, it used a high string instead of a low one.
Alex: Yeah, well...I'm awesome. And I can't wait to piss on your grave.
Vai: You already did. *shows album cover*
Alex: Fuck! *walks away*

Get the seven string guitar mug.A term used in the show Metalocalpyse on Episode 1.4 (Dethtroll) by Toki and Skwisgaar to describe old-fashioned, ancient, out of style accoustic guitars- which according to them, should be avoided at all costs because they're apparently for pussies and grandpas. It can be used in the singular and plural sense, due to its pseudo-Nordic roots.
Murderface: What are those wooden things? Chairs?
Barkeep: They are acoustic instruments.
Toki: What is acoustic? Oh, you mean a grandpa's guitars?
Skwisgaar: A grandpa's guitars? That's for pussies and grandpas. I think you know it.
Barkeep: It's your only choice, I'm afraid.
Pickles: Whoa, this is a tough one guys.
Nathan: Pickles is right, we have a tough choice. Playing acoustic is totally lame and not metal. But then again, if we don't put that troll back to sleep, we may never be able to check our e-mail with high-speed DSL again.
Toki: THE GRANDPA'S GUITARS ARE SMASHEDS!!
Skwisgaar: (referring to lake troll) Dudes, here comes that guy!
Nathan: Wait! The phones! Use the Dethphones! Throw them at that guy!
Barkeep: They are acoustic instruments.
Toki: What is acoustic? Oh, you mean a grandpa's guitars?
Skwisgaar: A grandpa's guitars? That's for pussies and grandpas. I think you know it.
