I had one of those minor breakthroughs in 151 tuning when I realized I could play the melody to this song. The backup guitar is tuned CFA (513) and the lead is FCF (151)

Thanks everybody. Sure is fun to play and made me rethink what can be done in 151.  The last year or so, I've been sort of obsessed with this idea of using two 3 stringers like this to varying degrees of success.  The lightbulb went of here for both tunings and I was able to use some of the concepts in Kid's I See Three's blog.

Adding a second guitar is a nice accompaniment. Nice tones made this cover sound great.
