congratulations, for being the first guy to play this tuning on youtube, I'll give you a hint, use the tuning E B E B E G #, this is the real tuning, my dream is also to have such a laud
João Victor Stefanini França yes exactly right! I started many years ago before I knew that tuning, so I keep my Alhambra laud tuned EBEG#BE, and EBEABE, also I have them in octaves not unison! Thanks for your comment, and thanks for listening 😎 !
In 2013 YES on on their YesWord website had an Ask YES promotion as part of the upcoming tour and Steve answered one of my questions which you might be intested in. Once and for all how is the Portuguese 12 string you use in Wonderous Stories and Your Move tuned? How do you prevent feedback when playing your hollow body ES 175. I would probably write better questions but I am at this very minute getting ready to leave and drive up to Detroit to see the band tonight. From the high strings, the top two strings are both A-flat above top E, and then the second set of strings-courses, they’re called, the second course is two strings tuned at E, the same as a guitar. The third course is B, exactly the same as a guitar. The next course is E, it’s a mixture-one of the strings is E like the top of the guitar, and the other one is E but the second fret at the fourth string of a guitar. The same thing happens with B below it- we’re going down now, so the fifth course, the top string of those is B- the same as the second string of a guitar, and the second of those is B, an octave below that. Then on the bottom course is unison, and that means that they’re both the same as holding E on the fourth string on a regular guitar. So it’s an E chord with an A-flat at the top. Oh, and I love your arrangement of Your Move. This song is one of my "happy songs" which I'm likely to break out singing if I'm in a good mood. The 12 string opening does it for me too. I've heard this song live many times over the decades and usually when I see the 12 string on stage I get very excited as I know this song is on the setlist.
PHENOMENALLY DONE.,SIR....
