Mods--if this belongs more in the "Tips, Tricks & Techniques" part of the forum, apologies. I thought I might get more feedback here and thought it more appropriate here as I'm asking a question and not sharing tips, etc.
Does anyone know if Cliff Edwards played in linear tuning? Did he go back and forth? I have tried to research this and have yet to find a solid answer.
I understand he switched from a soprano early on to a tenor, and have read that he often used a Bb or even A tuning, but I can't seem to find out (or figure out) whether he ever, or usually, or if or when, he used re-entrant tuning or linear.
I've studied many pics with him and his uke(s) and it often appears they are sporting a thicker (i e. lower-tuned) string in what it typically the re-entrant position.
Does anyone know? I appreciate any info...
