Jon Catler's new 64 tone blues/rock CD, "Find My Way Back Home," is a hoot...familiar, yet...twisted, in a good and intriguing way. I hear a lot of down home licks, he sure knows the genre, and the extra tones add a whole new dimension. This is the kind of music that could help people get interested in microtones in a big way. I'm hoping he'll get it out there, and maybe get the guitar mags interested. It's really nice to hear a guitarist with such an original approach...Hstick

It's a shame that Jon and Meridith can't join us here on the tuning lists. I know they are on line and I know
they have microtonal experiences to share.

How about me? Years ago Paul (who is now not with us. he's not dead, he's just now not with us.)
asked me to share what I leaned about open tunings on the guitar. I wasn't ready because I felt
that I was still exploring and wanted to use my findings in my own music.

I am now ready to share.

Use notes other than 5/4 and 3/2.
