since the days i picked a chapman stick, i've used mainly fifths. coming from sax/piano and not guitar it was a better thing as i thought that days... formerly i also tuned the melody side of the stick fifths (which is usually set up in fourths, no trace for the lost fret here). nowadays, the 8 stringed warr with aproximattely the same range as the stick tuning i used, but with less strings ;-), also in fifths, from low to high: BbFCGDACD. superexteeeeended range !! 2009/2/25 Per Boysen <perboysen@gmail.com>: > Thanks!
