Not sure if rules against self promo prohibit vids of us noodling or not, but I've been working in "New Standard Tuning" (all fifths and then a high minor third) lately and it has been a fun experience...apart from having to memorize 4 note per string scales, there are some real finger twisters at the low end of the neck for sure. Anyone else tried this out?

That has a good groove to it. Could sit in a bar sipping whiskey or martinis to that. What do you find this tuning enables over old standard?
