C#min11 Joaquin/Speedy

[Gerard Egan]

Hi folks- I’ve been messing around with Joaquin’s C#min11 tuning and would like to get deeper into it. My understanding is Speedy’s version was the same as JM’s, the difference being in how they tuned their 5th and 6th strings. Beyond songs like “Oklahoma Stomp” and “I’ll Never Be Free,” I’m curious what other songs feature this tuning. Any suggestions, YouTube links would be much appreciated. Thank you!

Gerard, could you post the tuning? Low to high, or stacked high to low?

[Gerard Egan]

Ha! Yes of course... sorry about that. According to Mike Neer’s post it looks like this (high to low):

E
C#
G#
E
C#
Bb
D# (upper octave)

Thank you, my brain maxes out at G9. This tuning causes it to boil over! Hopefully you’ll get some more useful responses here
