<p>Welcome Josh!</p>
<p>keep in mind that the d for your fifth string for exampel will be the d <em>BELOW</em> (lower than) the usual g you might tune your 5th string to in clawhammer. That's 2.5 steps lower.</p>

You might be up a whole step or something because the tension shouldn't be high enough to snap the string. The strings being fatter will need less tension than a wire rig.

<p>yeah that's what I have. It seems like there's bit too much tension in the strings to get the d and the F# without snapping. I guess they need to stretch out a bit. <br/> <br/> <cite>Chris Prieto said:</cite></p>

dGDF#A - low bass<br />
dADF#A - high bass<br />
<br />
That should get ya started. There's a good thread in here where the tunings are discussed more in depth.<br />
<br />
My first minstrel banjo was a prust. Pretty spiffy banjo.
