If you really want to open it up, lower your E string in C6 to D, which is what I did in the video in the first post


I see you are playing a 10 stringer in that video - what is the actual tuning (and which E did you drop)?

soooo,
i had tuned this wood acoustic lap steel to E7 (from the Eddie Bush thread), L to H is: E-B-D-G#-B-E
Then tried to figure out how to keep my fat Gmaj tuning strings. (tricone) So I went to G-B-D-F-B-D
which I hope is G7th. And then realized I had the opening to Red house on the first 3 strings. 3-1-2, 3-1-2 (14th fret)
it feels like a good blues tuning, just messing with RH. --
anyone use this? Mr. Green
