Try all the G tunings
if you take open G tuning
D5 - change this and e5 to get G6 tuning
B5 - Change this to C5 to get Gsus4 tuning, if its A# you get Gm
G4
D4
G3
D3
Lastly try out Open Esus11th tuning
e5
B4
G4 - if g# you get E open
E4
A3 - if B you get Em,

you can all way try Dropped E tuning (could break a sting or two)

oh and about the Nashville tuning you need to go by a set of stings for 12 sting guitars like martens you know the kind with the harmonic smaller stings under the normal stings. you want the small ones, you basically take small strings and use them on your six string guitar. So now you have some really really lights high tuned stings for some crazy guitar playing. add some overdrive and a steel slider you have some kickass sounds. |

The only alternate tuning I really use on a regular basis is just tuning a half step down from standard. It's easier for me to sing some stuff down there. |
