Many recent posts on alternate tunings, particularly since Brendan Power
launched his excellent Powerbender tuning.
For the last 10 years I've been using Major Cross tuning for fiddle
tunes. Details are at http://www.harmonicatunes.com/retuned
With any tuning, the proof is in the pudding. Here's a video I did a
while back of "New Camptown Races", using a Neil Graham C harmonica
tuned to Major Cross. I'm playing second position in G.

Fro those interested, Seydel should be able to do this tuning with their
Harp Configurator service. You'll have to specify the notes, you can get
them from my site.
