Great stuff Guy, thanks for sharing. Love both tunings very much, they have such a distinktive vintage sound.

Just want to mention that I offer several arrangements for C#-Minor tuning on my website:

I had constant stringbreaks on my Dobro and Tricone by tuning between C#Minor and A. I switched to a plain .022 and never had a broken 3rd string again. Advantage of the plain sting: no stringbreakage ...

That is so great to hear, Einar, looking forward to meeting you 😊!

Hello friends,

here is a video of the classic steel guitar rag, performed with my new Honky Tonk Band George & his New Heartaches. I am using open E tuning on my trusted Rickenbacher B6.

Niiice !

Don Helms style, no slants needed !

Super cool, Steve !

Great post Andy, thanks for sharing !

Hey Alan, Bobby plays a 7 string and Joaquin used a 8 string.

You can find the tunings of many players on John Elys excellent website:

https://www.hawaiiansteel.com/tunings/setups.php

C6 with a Hi G is actually not that uncommon, in a way it is a variation of A6 but higher in pitch. I am using it at the moment because I like the Major Triad on top , that makes navigating easier for ...

Great,

thank you Joe !

Mike Neer figured out that McIntire was using a high G# string on top, and you can really hear it on a lot of his later, circa early 40s recordings.

Do you have some examples for some of th ...

In regards to bullet vs Stevens bar:
Bullet is most definitely more awkward to hold
in the beginning, but the advantage of the
bullet bar is:
easier backward slants
Split bar chords are also a lo ...

Sounds great Mike !

Hey Lloyd,

most of the stuff you mentioned is actually not A Hibass, it is either G (Low or Hibass) or C#minor in the case of the Mike Neer with the Moonlighters I guess. But who cares, A and G sou ...

I did not learn a lot of his repertoire yet but what I heard sounds pretty much like A Highbass !

Just want to say thank you again for all the kind words and mahalo to everybody who purchased tabs, that keeps me going 😊. I already work on a couple of new arrangements for varying tunings. Glad ...

Haha Lloyd, no way
I will stop playing A Highbass
and C#minor,
the whole repertoire of my Hawaiian
band is based on these tunings and the
arrangements.
But with my Honky Tonk band I decided
