- I created this arrangement while messing around with a tuning suggested by Will Ackerman, F C Eb Ab C Eb. Since that's a lot of tension, I lowered it a half step to EBDGBD. The tuning is interesting, and I expect to cover it as part of my Peghead Nation Alternate Tunings course in the near future, probably using this arrangement.
This is one of 2 tunes I came up with in the tuning, the other is an original. But I often find it's a good idea to create an arrangement of an existing tune when exploring a new tuning, it keeps you focused on the melody and finding harmony and reduces the risk of noodling - basically I'm trying to bend the tuning to my will to support the tune rather than letting the tuning drive 100%, tho that's always fun and often rewarding, too.
Played on a Charis SJ.

I loved this piece, Doug. Looking back I now acknowledge that I have never written a single piece in a standard tuning. My mother always said I was odd.
A lovely arrangement of this traditional tune. And a nice use of Will's tuning!
Well crafted piece of music. Thank you, Doug 👋
Excellent Doug
Good arrangement Doug!
Delightful Doug. Thank you for sharing this beauty. I look forward to your course on alternate tunings.
Beautiful arrangement and such a beautiful guitar, Doug! 💜🌺
Sounds great Doug! Looking forward to learning it in an upcoming Peghead lesson!
So beautiful, Doug brother!
Beautiful, Doug!

Bravo very musical !
🤗🤗🌹
Lovely, Doug. Thanks! (as an aside, was this guitar in for some procedure at Wood Street Guitar recently? I saw an SJ there being worked on, so, just wondering!)
No, I've never been there. I saw you used them and may look them up at some point. I did have this guitar Plek'd at Gary Brawer's place a few years ago.
