    Glad I could be of help! You could also try Fret.zip, they have a file you can download that will show you how to find chords no matter what you are using as a tuning, and the # of strings you are using.

    Thanks, sjwinchell!

    I was trying to find this information everywhere and you really made it clear and simple for me. CigarBoxNation is good, but you laid it out loud and clear.

    I have a Russian balilaika that I want to fit in with my guitar, ukulele, and charango. I decided that since it’s already a 3 string instrument, I’d tune hack into some kind of CBG…

    thanks!
