Re: MOST cajun is dry //the zydeco guys are all over the map

There is only one "dry" tuning and that is unison or a single reed, everything else is a degree of wetness.

To me, depends on the box.

Savoy's tuning may be wet or dry but also tempers differently than other builders..so it is a matter of the tuning (temperament) and dry or wetness....

I like Cajun boxes to be dry and "just" . I like other boxes in tempered (12TET) and dry to sloppy Scottish , the wettest of the wet.
