Alternate Tunings

Here's a complete list of alternate tunings, or at least I believe that its pretty complete. Regardless, there are quite a few tunings for guitar on this list. The very last one is a tuning that I came up with years ago, so I thought that I would go ahead and include it.

As I discover more tunings for the guitar (there are tons!!!) I will add them to this list, or if anyone knows of something that I missed and cares to share it, I will most certainly include it on this list - enjoy.
