 I'm a bit out on a limb here, since I don't know that much about Waldzithers. I know these tunings are used, but there are probably countless other exiting possibilities.

The list contains 2 alternative tunings. Some of them should work with regular string sets, while others might require special gauges.

It's by no means a complete list of course and I'd love to hear of any other great tunings you've come across. Post a message at The message board and I'll pick it up there.

Standard tuning(s)

StandardA e a c#' e'Strings tuned in an A major chord. This seems to be by far the most common tuning.
      GG d g b d'Strings tuned in a G major chord one note below standard tuning. Or is this actually the standard tuning? I'm not quite sure to be honest.
