some people use 2 capos for 3 strings each, but at different places on the neck. whack eh? plus you have the 3rd hand capo which only capos the strings you specify.. similar to the keaggy method, but not as permanent.

Re: Keaggy
Yes, and so does Pierre Bensusan! I love alternate tunings. I got 2 acoustic guitars and neither one has seen standard tuning in over a month. Plus it helps when someone wants to pick up your baby and strum a few chords. All you gotta say is "Well, it's not in standard tuning" and that stops them right in their tracks (usually).

i'd love to hear any tunes you've written in those tunings. I've written about 3 in DADDAD. It's a kick ass tuning. you can't really get lost note wise. It's also great for emulating banjo rolls.
