I first came across the tuning in the book Mel Bay presents the Hawaiian Steel, Vol 1 but they just have it for a six string. I didn't think anything of it since I only had two single necks guitar at the time, tuned to C6th and E13, but then I saw Asleep at the Wheel at Gruene Hall in May and I aske...

B Minor with a diminished 7th tuning.

I was wondering if anyone knows the tuning for this for an 8 string?

I cannot seem to find any information on it other than one of Hank Thompson's steel player used to use it and Mr. Thompson was a big fan of it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
