D8 vs T8

Post by Gerard Ventura »

Hello, currently learning on a D8, tuned E13 and A6 (fairly big strings and I like a deep sound).
For those who play T8s, what tuning do you use on the 3rd neck? I'm finding the 13th and 6th combos with 8 strings each give me a lot of flexibility already...

I think most players use a C-6th along with the A- 6th and E-13th with their own variations on basic chord tuning set up. Eddie "C" ( the old geezer )
