A tuning question...maybe for Ricky Davis

Lap steels, resonators, multi-neck consoles and acoustic steel guitars

Hey Herb; I'm not sure exactly Lee's tuning your talking about. His E tuning is like Speedys and goes.
<font face="monospace" size="3"><pre>
E 015 plain
C# 018 "
B 022 "
G# 026 wound
F# 030 "
D 036 "
G# 042 "
E 052 "
Those guages there would be on the heavy side for a short scale.
The C6th I use for a short scale is:
G 013 plain
E 015 "
C 018 "
A 022 "
G 026 wound
E 030 "
C 036 "
A 042 "
</pre></font>
I hope that helps you some.
