It's rare that a player's style is centered around his tuning setup. There have been a couple notable exceptions, like Chalker and Sneaky Pete. But for the most part, it's the player's mindset that we hear.

I checked out his youtube stuff, and I don't see or hear anything non-standard. Looks pretty much like a typical Emmons setup...lowering and raising the E's, full tone lower on the 6th, and half-tone first string raise. I didn't see him using a 5&10 lower, but he may have that, as well, or maybe the Franklin pedal, but they weren't a big part of his playing.
