I like Bobby Igano's playing. It looks like he has 7 strings on that frypan he plays. I would like to know how it is tuned. Anybody? Thanks.

Bobby likes that high G. I tried it a few times but didn't care for it that much, and A6th has the same stack but with an E on top, not so high ...
And he likes 7 strings Very Happy

Agreed. I just saw, palyed with, listened to him ply, and talked story with Bobby - a great guy - on Kaua'i His 7 string Rick is a conversion from a 6 string. I add a G to the bottom on my 8 string C13 tuning.
