: Hi there
: In Lima, Peru, you can find some transcriptions to Garcia Zarate's work at any music store.
: HE usually tunes up the sixth string to a note F (up half a tone). So you can play the 6, 5, and 4th strings opened and get a nice F-A-D pattern

: Another alternative tunning I've seen on Peruvian andean guitar is tunning the 5th string down to G. In this case the open string base patterns are played on the 5th and 4th string (a nice G and D combination)

: Hope this helps a little

: I recently talked to Dr, Garcia Zarate on the phone. He has made a transcrition booklet for his latest CD and I think he sells it in his on home in Lima !

: Bye
