Charlie does use more than the "big three" positions, for sure, but he
definitely does not use any of the "altered tunings", i.e. natural minor.
While he does have a few, including Melody Makers, he pretty much
just leaves them on the shelf. He plays only standard major tunings,
which is his personal preference, from years of having only that tuning
available. He likes the natural minors, and messes around with them,
but prefers the majors.
