# he had bass strings on the bottom 2
some sort of high gauge mid sets and a thicker one instead of a high E. He must have used some open tuning, judging by the way he was playing.

# i wondered
if it was a modal tuning

ed: never used one so its pure theorising

# dunno. Itd be hard to tell something like that without playing the guitar itself.
i reckon it was probably octave pair tuning though, seeing as he had the bass strings on it. It was definately open tuned though, cos of the way he was playing it, mostly open strings with chord alterations.

# true
basically... he's just a bit good (prefer john mclachlan though despite the pink suitedness)
