Morning everyone,
Ive got a question for those of you with better ears and more experience than me.
(namely all of you!)
Do you know what tunings Chris Scruggs is using on his you tube videos, the ones taped at the little cafe in Decatur Ga?
Chris if your out there would be most thankful for the help.
many thanks,
Brad

Chris Scruggs studies at the temple of Kayton Roberts, and in several places has been quoted as using the same tunings (Thanks Jeff Mead):
F13

C6th+A7

C#

A (Low bass)
Pretty sure that the LOW A gets re-tuned on occasion. Chris has been inspiring to me as a player, if you like his style I would recommend you listen to as much Kayton Roberts as you can get your hands on.
Here are some links that helped me a lot:

They also both play through a Fender silverface deluxe reverb.
