Quick-Start Guide to Open G Tuning (Chords+Scales+Soloing) ★ Acoustic Tuesday 295

[@duncansvilla879]

I surf the internet a lot for lessons, this is by far one of the best tutorial on open G for beginners

[@jamescavanaugh3682]

Exceptional episode this week!

[@johanngregory3499]

One of the absolute best guitar lessons I’ve ever had. Thank you really fantastic. ❤🔥 🎸🔥💙☀️🌈🎶🎶🎶…may the music never stop…

Good stuff! In the banjo world, the shape you call "stairstep" is known as the "F shape" since if you play it with your index finger at the first fret, it's an F chord. Your "reverse stairstep" is also known as the "D shape" since with your index finger on the second fret, you get a D chord.

Fantastic info and I've been playing since 1968 when I was 10! Back then, it was listen to the vinyl and figure out how the chord was made.

[@curiositea]

Excellent. I'm primarily a banjo player and found this incredibly useful.

[@jimross9429]

Loved the episode as well as the sweet Furch.

This brings more sense to Open G for me - scale shape descriptions remind me of Dave Keenan's triad workshop for standard tuning - I think I'm getting it - thanks

Tony open G lesson is so so so great. Thanks so much!

[@johnwashburn3793]

Valuable stuff here! You are mining gold and giving it away!

[@OldMike1958]

Hi! Excelent explanation! I am trying to learn a bit more about Open G and tired of "slide" and "Keith Richards themes". As if the tuning in G did not give to do more things. You went further and broadened the horizon for amateur musicians like me. Thanks a lot! Regards from Argentina!

[@cph630_Chris]

I enjoyed this exploration in open G tuning. It’s my favorite open tuning to play around with & I frequently leave a guitar tuned in open G. I learned some new chord & scale shapes from this episode! Well Done!

[@a1969rocker2]

Love that you chose to feature open G in your episode this week. I’ve been experimenting between my guitar and banjo (you inspired me to buy one in 2021- own an 1894 Thompson and Odell open back). Thanks for all the tips!

[@nohillforahighstepper]

Excellent episode! 👏👏👏👏👏

[@djburrows1226]

Hey Tony…the first thing that attracted me to “Acoustic Tuesday” was your outstanding teaching style. The second thing was the “social aspect” of TAC before the pandemic, which included an annual “get together” and encouraging guitar geeks to form localized groups to have fun and have the opportunity to play and learn from other guitar players of all levels. Are there any plans to reinstate the social component of the TAC family? Keep up the great work! Regards, Dalton

[@tpaine1968]

Excellent and very helpful lesson……Thank you Tony……..

[@craigwhitfield1898]

Tony, thanks for the open G tuning tips! I use open G lots, but song centric. Looking forward to applying your tips to see what I can come up with.

[@briandilhomick6488]

Thanks

[@girliedog]

Excellant open G tutorial.

[@johnviolette5511]

South City Midnight Lady, Doobie Brothers... Open G.

[@michaellesch123]

Great show, Tony! Any time you want to do a show on open tunings and the chord shapes, I would love to see it! Also, I'm thinking of purchasing a Tonewood Amp. Would love a show with your thoughts on this.

[@cristinapayne548]

Yes, very useful. Thanks

[@agfpillay]

Wow, Just Wow.

[@robertlennon6923]

Great video and very helpful Tony,, if you were asked to recommend a book on open/alt tuning whih one would it be Rob

[@gzackerman]

Very interesting! Thank you!

[@claudiamauro5624]

so helpful. thank you

[@nightskyimaging]

Good one!

[@duncansvilla879]

good job

[@erichayden1144]

Great Video. Awesome Sweater!

[@nohillforahighstepper]

Absolutely loved the Dizzy video. I've been pickin for almost 40 years now and I would agree with him 100%. There are days that I am sorry I was ever cursed with talent on the guitar. And there are days that I am thankful for my trusted friend and companion. The "hard" part is never knowing which day I will encounter until my fingers feel the strings. Sometimes familiararity is a detriment. You long for that fresh canvas to paint your music on. And then there are days that everything just comes together perfectly. I guess the key is to keep playing. Push through the difficult times and relish the easy times. They all go into the recipe for the guitar artist that you become. The journey never ends.

[@Mr.Altavoz]

great lesson 😂and funny

[@ryanmcdonald2027]

can you actually play all 6 strings and do barre chords this way with a glass slide ?

[@perryretzlaff976]

Sounds like Seamus or San Tropez by Pink Floyd Album Meddle

[@davidmacleod9313]

2:33 I like G tuning better when the low E string is ALSO a G. 😊

[@manumusic3015]

What songs can i play with an open G tuning?

[@sbolfing]

FYI: Led Zeppelin "That's the Way" off their 3rd album!

[@RHDaveShaves]

Great show, as always. Your spotlight on Tripliciti reminds me another album by a trio of phenomenal guitarists: 1980's "Friday Night in San Francisco" by Al DiMeola, John McLaughlin, Paco DeLucia (kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXjFfXiZpJd4sMU). GGU!

I might be just me, but I find all percussive guitar players sound the same.
