A I mentioned in an earlier post I am in the process of rebuilding my Carter Starter-better material,etc,etc.
Having once had a Sho-Bud Pro II that i tuned the c-6 neck to The Moons tuning,I am thinking of doing the same with my Starter.
Whereas my 3rd string on the E9th will become my 1st string now,where do I place the first 2 strings ?I had the Winnie Winston book--showing Mooneys tuning,but lost it.
I will be using 3 pedals and 4 knee levers.
Any advice on this would be appreciated.

Thanks Guys
This is just what I was looking for.I had my Sho-Bud set up this way years ago,,and I actually found it very easy to use,,even having to use both feet sometimes,,The sound was what I was after,and got.
Will be posting pics of machine when I have it finished.
