I tuned my electric guitar (Fernandes ZO-3) to ADGCEA, one octave below Guitalele (Baritone guitar tuning?)
I find this to be a useful tuning to complement my ukulele or guitar tuned regular (EADGBE) because I can read chords like I do on Ukulele and also gives me more options with a Capo for accompanying different keys.
Strings used:
Ernie Ball Skinny Top Heavy Bottom Slinky 8-String Electric Guitar Strings (2624).
I used the 6 strings (8th to 3rd) to tune up to ADGCEA.
A - .080
D- .064
G - 046
C - .034
E - .024
A - .016
Depending on the guitar, you might need modification. Luckily on mine, I just had to widen the nut slot slightly and adjust intonation.
