OK, I'll bite. What's Nazareth tuning? All crossed up? Or something invented in a town in Pennsylvania?

Sorry, Jim, it was a lame joke... me working for a company from Nashville <-> tuning... Martin being located in Nazareth :oops:

That guy probably believes in the randomness of the universe so it doesn't really matter which strings go to which tuning keys, they all do the same thing, in the end.
