I was just wondering, since the SB8 is a 36" instrument, would it still be possible to tune it in a rather high tuning like (from bass to treble, with the first d# beeing the d# one semitone below the low E on a bass):

D# G# C# F# B E A D

so just a downward extension of the classic tuning's melody side .

This would give the range of a standard 4-string bass and a standard guitar.


It looks like this was (very similar to) one of Emmett's variations when he was modifying his guitar in order to get to the 10-string classic tuning.

E A D F# B E A D
