I'd go for ADF# tuning and playing 7th chords without the root note. Check Keni Lee Burgess'  videos and CDs for more...

Thank you Seaman for your endorsement. Please check out my instructional video CDs:

Especially, CD 4 and CD 6 for 3 string

On CD 4, I use GDg tuning and then retune using the same strings to ADf# tuning for CD 6.

I think you will find all your questions answered.

On CD 6, I teach a "moveable chord method", that functions very similar to the system used on a standard 6 string.

It is easy to learn and works real well (if I say so myself LOL)

Please feel free to write if I can be of any further assistance.

Enjoy your practice. Happy Holidays, Keni Lee

Thanks for your reply Keni. I have already ordered CD4 and you have shipped it.When I get done with 4 I'll order 6. Any other advice? Brad

Thank you Brad for your purchase. I would suggest if you have the time, watch the lessons like a TV show from beginning to end like a TV show. This will give you a better overview of the approach and make learning easier. Please feel free to write if any questions arise as you work through the lessons. Happy Holidays Enjoy.

EBE is what I find most accessible. This particular model of tuning works with other keys as well. you basically have a power chord. But you can play individual lead notes on the high string and keep the root chord with the remaining two lower notes. Tune up or down to change the key.
