Thanks for sharing.
I recently visited the Charlotte and Davidson area and also have a brother living in Chapel Hill. Lovely country, though a bit humid for me. Dropped D is nice rich and harmonious tuning. Ran across it fairly often in classical guitar music. I wrote one tune in dropped D, "Taffy", in a sort of slow blues style.

Thank you for your kind words! Drop D and high humidity sound perfect for a slow blues [emoji6]! |

Yes, thanks for sharing. I have a couple of fingerstyle pieces that I wrote in Drop D quite a long time ago, without really knowing what I was doing. I might revisit this tuning. I always liked the sound and feel of it.

My pleasure! It’s really an interesting one. I wrote a tune in it about a week ago. |
