Nashville Tuning (high Strung)
Nashville or high-strung tuning refers to the practice of replacing the wound E, A, D and G strings on a six-string guitar with lighter gauge strings to allow tuning an octave higher than standard. This is usually achieved by using one string from each of the six courses of a twelve-string set, using the higher string for those courses tuned in octaves. The Pink Floyd song " Hey You" from the album ''The Wall'' and the Kansas song "Dust in the Wind" from their ''Point of Know Return'' album are notable for using this form of guitar tuning. In "Hey You", David Gilmour replaced the low E string with a second high E (not a 12-string set, low E's octave string) such that it was two octaves up. The Rolling Stones' " Wild Horses" features both a 12-string guitar played by Keith Richards and a guitar with Nashville tuning played by Mick Taylor. Jumpin' Jack Flash features two acoustic guitars, one Nashville strung, overdriven through a cassette recorder. James Williamson used Nashvill ...
