In a thread running back in April I talked a little bit about the new instrument I had been playing with, namely a rewired Martin Backpacker. Basically I used a Nasville tuing configuration - tuned to an Open D Major.

The result has been wonderful, I have been playing with it ever since. I had been asked to go off and play with the configuration, then come back and post and article about the experience. Well, I have done just that. If you click here you can read what I've learned so far about this 'new toy' ... please come on back to this thread and comment, too. I'd appreciate hearing from you. Thanks!
