C Scale Tuning

Hello,

Just read Mr. Lee's article "The C Scale Tuning for the Pedal Steel Guitar" and it looks very interesting.

Have anyone actually used this tuning?
Is there some recording done using it?

A year or two after writing that, I discovered that an F Diatonic using the same underlying theory made more sense to me. I recorded half of a CD with it called b0b & Roy's Diatonic Adventures (now out of print).

Here's a link to the F copedent:

Here's the ten string version:

And here are some of the songs from the CD:

I remember that I made a demo cassette of the C Diatonic, but it's never been digitized. I'm not sure that I can even find it now.
