A song I like on the Leavitt tuning.
A few pedals in there without the
jazzy sounding chords.
A very flexible tuning waiting to be explored.

The "Leave-It" tuning (as I affectionately refer to it), was the only tuning I decided not to pay for. (All the others I used were free.)
True story...
Once upon a time at a steel show, a player was offering tab of a couple songs he had worked up with the Leavitt tuning. When I inquired about the (then new) tuning, he was very cagey. When I asked outright what the notes were in the open tuning, he said matter-of-factly "You have to buy the booklet to find out. I don't just give out the tuning for nothing".
And now, you know why I call it the "Leave It" tuning.
By the way...nice job on the song, Roy. |

That's unfortunate Donny.
Reminds me of " A Wound Time Can't Erase".
Bill Leavitt, the inventor of the tuning
never intended it to be that way.
I play Leavitt along with other tunings
and any one of them could keep me busy
for a lifetime.
Best Regards,
