Does anyone know what tuning Doug is using on Pipeline? I think it is some version of E but I am still new to this.
What a great job he does on this tune!

Thank you, I am tuned to Don Helm E 13, which I knew was close but no cigar, going to try to tackle this tune |

It's in the description of the video;
"Surfs Up! Fender Deluxe 8, Em11 tuning. (high to low) G E D B A F# D B I came up with this tuning specifically to play this song. It's not one of the standard tunings. My site: www.playsteelguitar.com" _________________ "Faith don't need no second opinion." |

Thanks for all the replies, Doug Beaumier, what a great steel guitar song this is. I have listened to it over and over! I have decided I need to rely less on tab and more on my ear, this is going to be my first attempt at transcription.
Wish me luck. |
