Discover the possibilities of this new mood. You can find detailed information about the MAJOR CROSS mood above under Tips (Tip 1)! The MAJOR CROSS tuning was developed by Tony Eyers and allows the major scale to be played in second position (or cross position) without using the bending technique. Even though many players often play in the 2nd position, there are always problems with traditional pieces from the folk or folk music sector because the bending and overblow technique must be mastered in the Richter tuning in order to reach all the notes of the major scale. MAJOR CROSS tuning solves this problem. Since bending and overblow tones are not required, it is much easier to play fast runs on major cross instruments, such as those found in many traditional fiddle pieces.
