      Thank you so much for this video! I’m just starting to truly explore any tuning outside of standard and this has been a big help in inspiring further exploration.

    Concise, no bad jokes, no excessive intro, clear sound, clear instructions for the ignorant. Just the video's quality
    was worth the visit. Thanks, man.

    My husband has been playing for over 50 yrs. He hasn't really bothered with open tunings....until he retired. Your open G tuning.. is a tuning that Keith Richards uses a lot. Great video Tony...he's off and running now!

  • @Colhogan06
    @Colhogan06 Před 4 lety

    I have been messing around with open "G" tuning on and off for the past couple weeks now and I am glad I ran across this video. Even though I'm using a Les Paul open "G" tuning has been fun to mess with. I was pretty satisfied with how far I got on my own but this just opened things a bit more. It has helped make learning fun! What I am finding that is happening is that by experimenting in open "G" I am able to get pleasant sounds from my guitar and this is part of the reason I wanted to learn in the first place. So open "G" is definitely an encouraging tuning when learning because it has helped me learn strumming patterns. Thanks for helping me expand my playing.

  • @peacemonger42
    @peacemonger42 Před 3 lety

    I've played around with 5 string Open G tuning, mostly with using a slide. I played around with this last night and discovered a whole new dimension to playing in this tuning. Awesome.
    A bit of a side note, I have kind of a beater guitar (purchased for $75, something to experiment with, new tunings, new strings, that sort of thing) which I've left in Open D tuning. These lessons work just as well.
    Now I'm trying to figure out what to play in these tunings.
    Thank you for this video.
