Nashville tuning is a great thing to use when you are tracking an ac acoustic guitar part in the studio, and I am getting into playing by itself too - just sounds cool (you can hear on my vid about my Maton Mini which is the guitar I keep in Nashville most of the time). The notes are the same as regular tuning so just get in there and play and have some fun!

String Gauges

String gauges are always a personal preference but I have put here the gauge that I use as well as a standard light and medium gauges you might find in a shop. Remember that you may need to make some truss rod adjustments after you move a guitar to Nashville - but I recommend getting that done at a store - I don't like touching truss rods...
