There are only so many ways to peel a banana. |

I'd like to know more about additional tuning too.

by the way,
CGCF is really low, apparently sometimes used for metal-ish projects. I can kinda see, but i like it for any style. 
try it!

BDADG - kind of like drop D but with an added low B.
ADADA - this is kinda sweet.

A tuning I came up with, where every open string can be played on the 6th fret of the string below AND (!!) above. |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jan 2001 Location: saint michael ,mn | | | i use to be in a band with a 7 string guitarist that tuned G C G C F A D (thats all 7 a whole step down and then the 2 lowest strings go down another step) so i matched him GCGCF with my 5. the low g was completely useless so i put lighter gauge strings on and tried CGCFA#. (EADGC down a step and then "drop C") then i tuned the A# back up to a C for CGCFC. so my intervals are 5th 4th 4th 5th. i love it . lots of cool chord possibilities
