Hi Gary , thanks for listening. This is in what I call open C : Low to high CGCGCE. They make nylon strings in different "tensions", where low tension strings feel really loose and extra high tension feels really tight under the fingers. This is on a medium tension string, sort of like a set of 0.12-0.53 bronze wounds, was actually pretty surprised to be able to tune that low although it's maybe not so clear that the low rumble you hear is a C.

Hi Chris, thanks for listening and liking. Btw you're one talented dude, not exactly my music but your talent shines through.

Greetings, Rik

This was incredible. I throughly enjoyed it start to finish, excellent playing.

Hi Rik,

Thanks for the tuning and string tension info...I've gotta check that tuning out

Hi Gary, you're more than welcome. If you didn't have to detune the guitar that much I would use open C more often, when I had a steelstring I used to play slide in open C.

Hi Robert, thanks very much. If you switch between steel and nylon strings it's like a completely different instrument, they do feel weird at first but you can get used to that. There is a lot of difference between the different tensions and even between different brands, imho more so than with steel strings. I personally favor Aranjuez strings and switch between "Concert Silver" and "Spanish Silver", the latter being Flamenco strings they sound a bit brighter and feel looser under the fingers and the treble strings are black so they also look mean and moody .

Hi Brent, thanks for listening, if you don't like retuning don't use open c . Just dropping your low e to d is a nice start.
