Stan P said:To guys, who use extra low strings:
Is it easier to put them on a Fixed Bridge or FR-type nut - bridge?
Are any mods required to accomodate very thik strings?
Thank you all
Stan

11-85 gauge strings.
It's tuned low but, heavy strings + 27" scale and trem with 5 springs = no flop![]()

Weird! No one uses this tuning. I've been using it for 5 years now. Great for 2 finger major/minor baritone triads on the low strings.

I've tried that on my classical once for playing a lute transcription. It was disorienting for a bit, but the fingerings made a lot of sense after a while. Should work well for most old lute stuff like Dowland or Weiss.distressed_romeo said:Has anyone tried Lute tuning? EADF#BE, with a capo at the second fret.
I really want to try it on my classical guitar next time I go home...

I dont have a different tuning for different genres or anything, although an extra high note sounds awesome with chord heavy rhythms. (IE, clean passages and whatnot)
What string do you use for your high F#?
Has anyone tried Pat Metheny's acoustic baritone tuning, from the 'One Quiet Night' album?
ADGCEA with the middle two strings strung an octave higher.
Haven't tried Nashville tuning in ages...wouldn't mind giving it a go again...
