So my background has been baritone uke DGBe and tenor guitar with the same tuning now for 4 years. I play mostly songs written for guitar in a chord melody or solo flat picking style, some blues, some rock, some old time. Lately I have been drifting towards bluegrass and fiddle tunes. I have messed around with GDAE tuning in the past, but not seriously.
For those of you that have played these tunings, is the change to a 5ths tuning and the increase in the instruments range with low G to C# enough of a reason to seriously begin using this tuning for bluegrass and fiddle tunes?? I can leave one of my tenors in DGBE and change one or two to GDAE no problem.
