I now only play in RF's new standard tuning for guitar. In conjunction
with
using the new tuning, I also make extensive use of various pitch devices so
I can access both very high and very low tones.
So, if I take the time, I can really cover a large spectrum "pitch-wise".
And having the low C as a starting point helps too...
