Yes! Thanks I like the way you do the Jimmy tunes verry educational & entertaining! I see your Building style is quick and long neck,and that tone is the basic,you are mostly tuned in E D B is it or EDE? on the JH ones.

- For sure Mark. Lessons learned with CBG tunings can apply back to 6 strings as well.
