One other tuning that was new to me was shown by Billy Bright several weeks ago and Chef's house. For Bonaparte's Retreat he split the natural G course as A and D then DD AA DD. It worked really well. M On Wed, Oct 28, 2009 at 8:45 AM, mistertaterbug wrote: > > Nah, that'd be good. The octav

Just cuz I was fooling around with how low I can tune my strings, when you say DDAD, are there three different D notes or two? I was trying a D(low) D(normal) AD(high) for the jig Frieze Britches the other day that was pretty wild erik On Oct 27, 2:29 pm, mistertaterbug wrote: > Nice Donster, >
