Thanks Shane. Just what I wanted to know. I may give it a try.

Uncle John, I wouldn't say the tuning was really that versatile. I currently use this tuning for just three songs: Tattoo of You, Mother Leeds and a cover of "Horse" by the band +LIVE+.

I usually have between 5-8 different guitars on stage with me, all strung differently with various tunings.

Like the sound of that tuning- sounds beautiful. Pretty song too. Shane is that tuning versatile for you? Huh. I kind of feel stale on the old stuff and I am thinking about trying this.

sounds like the theme song from the tv show friday night lights.

Nice tune Shane. First time I heard it nice to see some other tunings ;-)
