I wanted to work this song up with my band--threw it to the guitar player and he learned his part in like 10 minutes--now I'm lagging lol. I don't hear this being done in Don's usual E13(E6) tuning--the solo lays out ok on my A6th neck, but the head/tail I'm struggling with. It sounds like he may be using open strings to cop the steel part i.e. bouncing off the strings. Any clues on his tuning, and by chance has anyone worked it out/transcribed? I have the A6th on one neck and the Helms E13th on the other.
Thanks
