Great old standard on a six string set up:High/low-
F--D--B--G--E--C
I play this completely solo relying on the set up to get me through. Smile

Well, you've done it once again.........

Another really fine solo! Not only quite creative but with a demonstrated playing ability that is second to none.

What kind of guitar, amp, etc., are you using.
Do you use an electronic tuner?

Quite a variety of harmonics and all done with perfection!

Great job, Roy. I enjoyed the arrangement and the way you held certain chord tones while playing the melody. Although I've played mostly in C6 I've been intrigued by this tuning which seems to work well for playing jazz and extended chords.

Any chance you'll be putting together tabs of your arrangements in this tuning?

Thank you!!
Ray here is the "little Gib" (Pic below)
I tune with a CHROMATIC tuner I bought from the Steel Guitar Network (Charles Tilley)? It clips on the head stock stays there until I switch guitars.



All the best,
