What's a good spot for E13 tuning lessons???
I have tons of instructional material at this point, but ALL of it is centered around C6/A6. Does anyone know where I can get solid E13 lessons?

I have both the Don Helms and Roy Wiggins books and both revolve around the 6th part of the E13 tuning.
I haven't found anything that addresses the 9th, and 7th parts of the tuning.
The Mel Bay Completer Steel Guitar Method is in E7 E, B, G#, E, D, B which should help with the bottom end of the seventh part of the tuning. Unfortunately, it is written in musical notation not tab.
I would really like a Paul Franklin style course that focused on the A6 and E13.

Yes, I ordered the full georgeboards package and to my dismay it’s all C6 which I’m starting to hate more and more by the day… A6 is what I’m focused on so the videos are relevant if I transpose them but that’s quite inconvenient for someone learning an instrument… I’ve emailed John Ely and he has said he’d be taking new students after the new year, but he has so much on his plate right now with family illnesses etc that I’m not counting on it

I put Leon E13 on all my single-neck guitars and just lived in it for a while... you get used to the quirks. Hardest is missing those easy minor chords... they're still in there, but harder to hit. See this video for some things I've learned.
