EEB tuning  (strings: low E, D & B from a pack of guitar strings).  Tuned E (low), E (octave above) and B

Shane Speal uses the EEB tuning on his two signature songs, Mother Leeds and Tattoo of You.  Hear the songs and then learn how to play them.

    Very inspiring Shane. Hey, thanks for making these videos, they're helping me get the hang of a three string and their different tunings.

    Cool! Thanks, Shane! Now I have to build an EEB box...

      The guitar used in these examples was originally sent to me as a CGC tuned instrument.  I just modded it for the thicker strings.

      I hope this stuff spurs some new songs from you guys.  Try new tunings.  Come up with new riffs.  Escape the woodshop and play these suckers today.
