Nope. Standard tuning. If you use the top 4 strings, it makes a G6 chord (E B G D high to low). Plus on the DVD, they go pretty quickly into "Little Sister", and Pete is playing the same tele, definitely in standard.

He does nail the sound very well. Nice job from Pete.

Oh wow! This certainly opens up some ideas then!

Thanks!
