    You need a 12 string guitar for this.

    11 means play the open string on the 11 string and so on and so forth.

    That .. Or you would need 12 guitars (you'll have to manage holding them, it takes practice) and then it's just about the numbers and the guitars.

    Those are frets you need to press on the strings.
    Top most row is the e string.
    second is the b string ... and so on

    So here you would have to play 11th fret on g string ...

    That's the only sane way to playing something as complex as that.

    If u cant help the chap who asked this, least you could do is try not to confuse him.

    Who said anything about tuning it to sound like..... whatever it is you said. Scroll back and read it again.

    Change it if you wish. Make it legible this time.
