Anyone know what tunings Chris is using here?

Pretty sure one neck is either C6 or Ag, but I can't tell whether he has an E or G on top...

It is most likely these tunings directly from the man himself:

Why do so many players use F13 or F9 instead of E13 or E9? Is it because F is the dominant chord relative to the C6 neck, making it easier to jump necks in mid-song?

The F13 makes the chords line up with C6. Thats why most western swing players use A6 with E13.
