===Jazz=== Hungarian born Australian Jazz guitarist [[Laszlo Sirsom]] plays 8-string jazz guitar made by Phil Carson Crickmore He's tuning as a normal guitar on the middle plus High A and lower B. [[Charlie Hunter]] plays an eight-string guitar made by Ralph Novak of Novax Guitars. Five of the strings are tuned to the standard guitar's upper five (A, D, G, B, E), while three of the strings are tuned to the standard [[bass guitar]]'s three lowest (E, A, D). The bass and treble sections have separate pickups and are sent to separate amplifiers. Hunter also has a ten-string guitar based on the same principle—a combination of standard six-string guitar and standard four-string bass.<ref>{{cite book |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=nVmfrospvLYC&pg=PA180 |page=180 |title=Masters of Jazz Guitar: The Story of the Players and Their Music |last=Alexander |first=Charles |publisher=Hal Leonard Corporation |year=2003 |isbn=0879307285}}</ref>
