I’ve really been enjoying this tuning, especially for major and minor blues jamming. However, I find myself torn between two different inversions.
FCFACE and FAFACE
The first inversion gives a nice power chord on the bottom 3 strings.
The second inversion gives me the root twice, for the F major AND for the A minor.
I’d like to know the thoughts of the SGF hive mind. Thoughts?

| Power chord on the bottom is nice. You can always retune the 5th string to use both tunings. |

Absolutely!
In the meantime, I’m finding the FAFACE version more to my liking. Seems neither here nor there for major keys, but having the second, lower, A string makes a big difference in minor keys.
