Nashville Tuning
I see the acoustic section gets very little traffic. I did a search for Nashville tuning and found nothing so I thought I would share something that I just learned about not too long ago.
Nashville tuning can be heard in songs like Wild Horses (Rolling Stones) as well as some Fleetwood Mac songs. If you google "Songs that have Nashville tuning" you will find detailed information regarding what it is and where it's used.
Here is one location for the strings:

I have my J28SDL jumbo acoustic strung with SIT Nashville tuning and I really like the sound. I do recommend that you have more than one acoustic before you string the one with Nashville tuning unless your primary guitar(s) is an eletric.
