    Thanks, @Cadgirl. It was a fun day. I don’t have a major problem with tuning the guitar to a different key, but it seems like favorite guitar doesn’t “like” being changed as it takes a day or two after a change to stabilize again and stay in tune again. Changing strings, however, is a different story. Always stresses me out — particularly since I have only done a guitar a couple of times. 😵

    As I have two guitars, I decided to use my older, full-size guitar (an Ovation) to make changes to the tuning so I can leave my Taylor GS mini — which is a more comfortable size & my favorite — in my standard tuning. As I leave the Ovation in the guitar case most of the time, I just get it out and adjust the tuning to whatever alternate tuning is being used. It’s not as easy for me to play due to shoulder problems, but I can make it work for the current exercise and still have my mini to play other music without retuning it. 🙂

    I would like to buy a 2nd smaller size guitar but will have to wait until I have paid off another expense so I can save up and pay for another new one. 😉
