How High the Moon - C6th non-pedal

Post by Ed Baker »

Here's a version of How High The Moon for C6th non-pedal tuning.

Although I transcribed this for my 8 string neck, it can be played
on a 6 string lap steel (C E G A C E). I'm new to this transcribing
stuff, so I don't know how things will work out in advance.

I'm in the middle of transcribing it to the Leavitt tuning. Hopefully,
Roy Thomson and Mike Ihde can chip in with some suggestions once I
complete it.

I have a nice set of backup tracks and the full sheet music score
if anyone wants a copy. ejb@theworld.com
