BEST Open G Tuning Songs PART 2!

[@thomasryan5681]

You are so right about learning the songs and then playing them with what makes you feel comfortable while adding your own twists. That's why they call it 'influenced by..'.

[@doubledsrockschool]

Exactly! I couldn't care less about perfectly replicating a performance that was done 50 years ago! Take what there is to learn from it and make your own music!

[@johnr1348]

I like all the tunes you play on your vids! Classic Rock N Roll at it's finest!

[@doubledsrockschool]

Thank you so much!

[@kenwood2311]

Another great video. Thankyou. Note - from a Brit - it was Ry Cooder that showed Keith Richards the open G tuning.

[@doubledsrockschool]

Yes! While they were working on Beggars Banquet?

[@jamessilver2748]

Really enjoy your vids, need more open G & other open tunings please

[@doubledsrockschool]

I am putting out Open G vol 2! Should be out today. I am working on some E songs too!

[@jamessilver2748]

@@doubledsrockschool brilliant & thank you 👏👏👏👏

[@doubledsrockschool]

Thank you James! 😊

[@jloo2135]

Great channel! This is a great way to teach guitar.. a lot of us aren't looking for drawn out technical details, we just want someone to show us how the song goes and we'll watch and figure it out

[@doubledsrockschool]

Thank you very much!! I am having a lot of fun!

[@ElaineWood-f2t]

Great rendition of Wild Horses! I love that song! You did it justice!!! ❤❤❤❤

[@doubledsrockschool]

Thank you so much Elaine!

[@doubledsrockschool]

I had to do it with no lyrics or they would have blocked it.

[@OG-SilverSurfer]

Completely agree. Great feeling, in there

[@doubledsrockschool]

Thank you!

[@RollingStoneZzzzz]

Man...I love your open G work!! Love all your work but I'm a "G" Man! No punn in tended! Smoken lesson...your studio was filling up with smoke! 🔥 Thanks Ray Boston Massachusetts 👍🏻😉❤

[@doubledsrockschool]

Thanks Ray! I appreciate it 🙏

[@jumpnjy]

The reverend Billy G also uses a hybrid open G on Jesus just left Chicago by using a standard tuning with the A string dropped to a G

[@doubledsrockschool]

Ok! Thanks for the tip! I really enjoy the discovery process! Cheers!

[@timjackson4649]

I accidentally figured that out very recently lol

[@doubledsrockschool]

Good for you! I can see whow that would work. I read that he had 2 guitar tracks on the album. One in Open G and the other in standard. I don't know how reliable the soucre is.

[@PeterLucibelli]

My brother, you have some great videos here. What I'm really impressed with, you are the first person I came across on KZbin that does going to California in g open g. Others say it's double drop d but it seems to really make more sense to me being an open. G. Excellent videos and I love your shameless promotions. I've been a showing writer just about all my life. I'm 61 as of this post and just exploring open g. Anyway, excellent videos and a little bit of History thrown in there.

[@doubledsrockschool]

Thank you so much!! Many people have commented the California is in Double Drop D. My research indicts both possiblites. I wish I could ask Jimmy Page. 😆 Keep on Rockin'!

[@JohnDoe-us5rq]

I saw the predecessor of this video in this instalment of this topic and since I hadn't had any time yet to try this, I just thought mapping out the cords would be a rather pain, since I'm, of course, not yet fluid in identifying the notes on the higher strings, yet. But it makes total sense to 'see' the cords in their full shape and then identify the 1,3,5. That's so obvious, I'm stunned how I could not see it. And all the while I also learned, the D-shape could be interpreted as a part of a C-shape. Awesome.

[@doubledsrockschool]

Don't you love those lightbulb moments??

[@guitarbites]

Great vid, Dwane. Keep up the great work!

[@doubledsrockschool]

Thank you so much! Is there another subject that you'd like to see? Let me know! Have a great weekend!

[@rynehastings9933]

I always thought Page played Going to California in Double Drop D but since my guitars are tuned to Open G far more frequently, I will relearn in Open G!

[@doubledsrockschool]

Only Jimmy Page knows for sure..lol.

[@justinfickel1331]

Jimmy plays Levee in Open G live. Recorded it in Open E tho.

[@daniellauzon9297]

Cheers , your Vid popped up on my feed, I remember jamming with you at smoke meat Petes years back , one of my favs is Bobcageon which is in open G

[@doubledsrockschool]

Bobcadeon is a great one!! Thanks for the good word!

[@spidgeb3292]

Best description of Jack White I've heard. I'd perhaps use the word "bombastic" to describe his approach, as well. Thanks for turning me on to "Death Letter." That's new to me and I love it.

[@doubledsrockschool]

My pleasure! It was new to me. I found it during my research for this video. I love Jack White, and I really want to include something from him.

[@DocJJohnson]

Another really really Goode one..thank you..!!

[@doubledsrockschool]

Thank you very much!

[@WScott-gd2mj]

Very fun stuff, great playing! I believe Jackson Browne tunes the low E all the way down to C, at least for solo acoustic.

[@doubledsrockschool]

I bet that would sound awesome!! Thanks for the tip!

[@jameslanclos568]

When the Crowes first came out with Jealous Again, I thought they sounded like the Stones. I had no idea about the open G thang!

[@doubledsrockschool]

Now you know why! Lol! I find the Stones a perfect balance between The Stone and Rod Stewart and the Small Faces.

[@jameslanclos568]

Yes, thanks. After viewing a few of your videos, I subscribed to your channel.@@doubledsrockschool

[@kevinlentz7604]

You are such an inspiration ❤

[@doubledsrockschool]

Thank you, Kevin!!

[@friedrich1957]

Thank you! 7 I didn't know about!

[@doubledsrockschool]

My pleasure!!

[@matthieuburlin4808]

That's incredible Jeff Buckley is never in this kind of videos ! Last Goodbye and What will you say (Open G), Vancouver (Open D), All flowers in time (Open C) are fantastics songs with incredible guitar works, more rich than any Richard's parts in open.

[@cowboyindian1]

greetings from Brussels Belgium

[@doubledsrockschool]

Greeting my friend!

[@stonz82]

love this topic. Everly Bros used Open G too

[@doubledsrockschool]

Oh wow! I didn't know that. Thank you!

[@jonbigg7385]

Your inclusion of "Watch Over You" got you another subscriber. More folks need to be exposed to Alter Bridge. Thanks brother!

[@edwardpotter8342]

Great video,I'm 53 still learning guitar always can get better What about some George Thourgood?

[@doubledsrockschool]

I love George Thorogood!

[@perk005]

your awesome

[@doubledsrockschool]

Thank you so much!

[@diegokillua]

death letter covered by jack one if my favorites

[@LorrieL]

Wow. I just learned how to play. Jesus just left Chicago. Watched Billy Gibbons play live. He didn't play that song in open G. In fact, he played it in standard tuning with the A string tuned down to a G. I'm just saying.

[@doubledsrockschool]

I know Bro. I saw that too. I am not surprised that he uses a hybrid tuning. Thanks for the help!

[@Beachbumartist]

Cool blues song at the end. Is that an Epiphone J 45? Thanks

[@doubledsrockschool]

The Epiphone is an EL-00. It's a cheap guitar but it play great! Staight, confortable neck, good ftret work. I paid about $100 used.

[@cezzajamboree]

Great stuff bro. Excellent video. But no Honky Tonk women

[@doubledsrockschool]

Thanks man! Check out my Keith Richard's Oepn G video on my page. It's there. Rock on Bro!

[@dethmerwillems5439]

Pretty unknown in the States, but what about ‘Rain’ from the popular British rockband Status Quo? Of course in open G

[@doubledsrockschool]

Thanks for the tip! I'll check that out!

[@matwetton]

random question but as beginner lapsteel player, would you recommend standard "open g" or dobro G to play over these records?

[@doubledsrockschool]

From what I understand, open G on guitar is normally DGDGBD, on Dobro, it's GBDGBD. The 2 are quite different. It might be a bit of a challenge. Let me know if you try it. Anything is possible if you want to put the work in. Playing lapsteel, you would be moving around a bar as opposed to fingering the fretboard, but the two tunings are closely related so it's definitely do-able.

[@UncleDickeysRandomLife]

Good stuff. Sign this Guy of course you'd prob. owe them money . the way they do things in the industry . you need like Triple Plantinam before you can buy a house

[@doubledsrockschool]

Sounds about right!

[@Mr59Esquire]

Going to California is actually in a D tuning .Just so you know. And is much easier to play in that tuning. Great video well done

[@doubledsrockschool]

Really? I will have to check that out. Thanks for the feedback.

[@Mr59Esquire]

@@doubledsrockschool It is D,A,D,G,B,D. . I was about 10 feet away from him in Boston 95 tour with Plant . Got to watch and listen to him up close.. All the best ,rock on.

[@doubledsrockschool]

Thank you!! I am going to try that! And I am so jealous that you got to see that show. 😆

[@spidgeb3292]

I'd love a chart of chords in open G. I can find them with some stumbling around, but I'd much rather be lazy. Any suggestions?

[@doubledsrockschool]

I will make a video on chords/riffs in Open G, but there are a few places that I have seen on the wed that give chord charts but not on video. I'll work on that!

[@hotplug56]

Keithy actually got the open G bug from non other than Rye Cooder.

[@doubledsrockschool]

I came across that in my research. Thank you for confirming.

[@rebluecrow]

Love Spreads - Stone Roses , open D

[@doubledsrockschool]

Thank you! I'll listen to that!

[@davidsmart7675]

Rain by status quo

[@perkins1439]

Man you was playing the end of the road all wrong that's not how he does it no I'm just kidding you actually played it the way you play it

[@doubledsrockschool]

Hahaha! Thanks man! I neede that! 😆

[@johnryan662]

Yeah cool vid mate. Maybe not your scene but America horse with no name.

[@doubledsrockschool]

What a great tune!! Thanks mate!

[@williamhermann6635]

Jack White is low key the best bluesman alive. Been saying it for 15 years lol

[@doubledsrockschool]

Agreed!! Jack is the man!

[@midastouchmidastouch5149]

keith got open G from Ry Cooder

[@doubledsrockschool]

I cover that in another Open G video

[@FBG61]

I watched 2 of your videos on open G......choices are subjective,,I don't mind that you take Start me Up over Brown Sugar, wheras the latter is the original and SMU is a reverse of that...but...to ignore Honky Tonk Women, the mother of all open G songs, the only nr 1 charting song I know (please correct me if I'm wrong), but foremost the song that demonstrates open G like no other as you can play the intro without fretting.......with all respect...shame on you (with a big smile)

[@doubledsrockschool]

Definitely subjective. I agree.
