Keep those spare resos for "other tunings".
In the last year since I got DAS (dobro acquistion syndrome), I have
intended on keeping my other resos in different tunings. Last week I decided
to go back thru my Mike Auldridge SL-1. It is an older recording and
somewhere along the way it is not in standard tuning. So instead of detuning
my "main reso" the W/S, I grabbed my Regal. And so I am going to keep it in
that tuning while I am working on this video again. I may leave the Regal
that way so whenever I want to play the MA SL-1 again to brush up some of
the songs. I had been working on "Head Over Heels". Later I may go on to the
other 2 songs on there.
With 2 other resos "sitting back", I intend on tuning one to G6 for when I
play Panhandle Rag. I just hate detuning and retuning up on a guitar. On the
#4 reso I want to tune to D and learn some on that, but have never really
experimented with it. Are there some good D tuning songs?
Cheers,
Robert Duke

Since the Gibson came into the house the Regal just sort of sits there. So
spend another, what? 90 bucks for a really good sounding reso that's not
going to get played regularly? Or let it go to someone that needs a really
good sounding guitar for much less than 4 figures.
