I don't know how to feel about this.It's like super modern(too modern for my taste)but I think I start to like it.
What's the tuning on this one?

Thanks man! Aiming for super modern is a good way to put it, I hope it gets there :D

Tuning will be from low to high: F# - B - E - G# - C# - F#

I think 30 is a bit too much for an F#,I thought you would tune to C#.But whatever suits you best.Also,nice locking system you got there.

Which octaves? You doing F#1 or F#0? 30" is kind of an in between scale length for me for those notes, that's why I'm curious.

Which software did you use for the modeling in post 21? Looks like something that could be done in SolidWorks, but I'm looking for an affordable/free option :)
