IMHO, it really doesn't matter what key the tuning is - G6 (KonaBob), C6 (me and a host of others, D6 (I used to use that), or E6 (Sol Ho'opi'i who called it a C#min7 tuning, Don Helms with Hank Williams, Leon Mac Auliffe and others). It's having the 6 and the 1 note on the 2 & 3rd, or 3rd & 4th, strings that makes the tunings: 1) very useful and 2) Hawaiian sounding. |
