THose exact words typed into Google either take me to video's that are an hour long or web pages that basically say, take the string off and put the string on. LOL. I cannot believe how difficult this is to find but, here's the deal. THis one looks a bit different.

It has 4 strings and friction pegs. When I got it, it had only 3 strings on it and the bass string was in the 4th string position (closest to me) and the other strings are evenly spaced at the nut and bridge. Every article I have read says that the bass string is the 1st string and the two treble strings are closer together.

To complicate things even more the set of John Pearse strings I bought have the bass string in the 4th position too.

So what gives?

Also on this instrument looking closely at it, it does look as though the nut was cut to have the bass string at the 1st position.

So is there some tuning out there that has the bass string at 4th position and the strings evenly spaced like a guitar? And what would that tuning be?
