Hi Russ...thanks for the tuning; it sounds spot on to me, as well as awesome if you can get the guitar to stay in tune down there. Teeth rattling indeed! I just have one suggested correction for the verse: it sounds like A E F# (not C#) to me. So as according to your "tone" chord diagram chart, as if you are playing A in the standard tuning. Thanks again!

Also, good luck not breaking your strings when you tune it back up!
