Thread Name: Open tuning [what is it]
Subject: RE: Open tuning [waht is it]
I can't really describe it any better in words, and I don;t have facilities to make a picture - I thought I may have had a copy of the original one I got when I got it off EBay - YES!!!! but can't find it on the HD.

Was mentioned to the same extent as here in The Ultimate Busking Tool, and maybe another thread at the same time - didn't get much response.

I'm serious about setting it up. I don't mind if it has an unusual tunung setup. The whole thing is a kludge - a real piece of sh** you might say - the neck is held in place with a pair of turnbolts - the who;e thing takes about 3 days to reset the tensions when you fiddle with the tunng as the thing settles down... :-)

I've heard most of the possible jokes in the first 5 mins of its first public appearance...
