Playing Around with 12 string Tuning

Anthony Minstein · From: Kentucky, USA

I'm fooling around with some new tunings...one I've just started fooling with is a standard A6, with an added F at the bottom and a diminished chord on top...so it looks like:

C#
Bflat
G
G
E
C
A
G
E
C
A
F

The G on string 10 is an octave below string 9 with the diminished chord in the same octave as the 2nd A6, so I can also use it as another V7.

Combines a swing tuning with a jazz tuning...though I don't have a Maj 7 (the bottom one is too muddy)...which I'm trying to figure out.

Any comments?

Try extended Leavitt. You will have all you need. The diminished chord is on the bottom where you want it leaving the upper strings for melody and the bottom for chord work. You will have all the chords you would ever need.
