Alt Tuning ? - high g to low e?

[Shaqattack]

Has anyone ever tuned their tenor high to low? I was wondering how it would sound if I grabbed a pair of standard guitar strings and use them to tune by tenor GDAE, but from high g to low e. I’d probably only use it for chords and am just curious if anyone’s ever done it. I’ve been playing a lot more rock and americana and wonder if it’s worth trying.

It is not strummed for chords, only plucked.

Stanley Jordan is a proponent of all fourths tuning.

It’s SO confusing when people write tunings the wrong way around...
took me a while to realise you might mean Piccolo bass tuning, which is something I’d like to do on a tenor at some point too.

Eastwood provide a suggestion for their tenor range - on the first table, last entry:

When I first got my mandolin I tried ukulele tuning...it lost all that brilliance of the mandolin.
