This article is about a tuning for six-string guitar. For the steel guitar tuning, see
E9 tuning .
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 .[1] 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 Kansas song "Dust in the Wind "[2] Point of Know Return 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 a 12-string guitar played by Keith Richards and a guitar with Nashville tuning played by Mick Taylor . "Jumpin' Jack Flash " featured two acoustic guitars, one Nashville strung, overdriven through a cassette recorder .[3] James Williamson used Nashville tuning on "Gimme Danger"[4] on Raw Power by the Stooges . Elliott Smith used a variant of Nashville tuning with a twelve-string guitar on XO [5] Pat Metheny is known for using Nashville tuning on several occasions, notably his song "Phase Dance" from his group's debut album .[6] [7] Andy Fairweather Low used a high-strung guitar on his 1975 UK hit single "Wide Eyed and Legless ", taken from his La Booga Rooga [8] [9]
