Okay, so i'm planning on picking up a 6 string bass soon for a band i'm joining. The guitarists are using Drop C# so i'm wondering what in the hell should I tune my bass to?! I'm going to tune one of my guitars to the same tuning i'll use for bass for now, just so I can write out the bass parts.
So, what do you guys think would be the most appropriate/usable tuning?

Standard 6 string tuning gives you a low B which should be low enough, tho' with slightly lighter strings why not tune the same as your guitarist - tho' an octave lower - play the same chords if your hands are big enough and watch his face ?
BTW fyi
Standard 6 = BEADGC low > high
