It was Irish music that led me to spiral type tunings--still not using full spiral.

>>, you get a good Lydian mode (which is actually used quite a bit in
Appalachian fiddle music) and the ability to play some good figures over
the II chord that shows up in so many tunes.
Hey Emily,
Could you give me the names of some of those tunes? I'd be very interested
in hearing them.
I'm glad this tuning has suited you so well... Richter is great but has
some disadvantages for melody playing.
Thanks,
Eugene
