Does any one know if Tommy tuned down for "soul to soul", maybe a half step or maybe a whole one?

SRV tuned down a half step, so TS probably did too?

The most comon opinion I have found is that Tommy also tuned E flat. Some SRV just doesn't work with out a low E flat, and I've never seen nor heard of his Tommy using a five...... just a Jazz .
