This inspired me to write a song in this tuning. Very fun tuning to revisit from time to time. Thanks for the refresh. cheers

Thanks, Sean, I’ve been a fan of open G for a long time and you brought out some great new ideas to expand on 🤙Thanks again 🎸

[@DougieGeee]

I hear lots of Led Zeppelin sound in this, especially that 5th-7th fret area. Thanks Sean!

[@theskipgilberto]

Sounds awesome! Can't wait to try on my electric. Thank you.🤙

I've tried taking the B string down to B flat for open G minor. I also play in open D minor a lot. I find sad music more interesting and after 73 years on this planet I got a lot of blues.

Life is but one breath. It begins in tension with the long inhale, and ends in release with an exhale. Yah, in. Weh, out. YahWeh. You've got a few years on me, but a degenerative disease has landed me prematurely in my mid-eighties, my body and brain are in pieces. We've run the race, brother. We can finally stop now, no further to go. And would we even want to, if we could? I don't want to see another day of this world. Everything is turned to poison. I can't remember the last time I met a human being.

[@stevescuba1978]

I'll have to try it. I hope you have a lot of sunny days to go with those blues. It helps to appreciate the lessons in both.

Just started fooling around with an Open G. What a fun tuning. Throw in a slide, if you feel like it, and you're off to the races. Still a lot to learn about the Open G but, now I know why Keef Richards just eliminates the 6th string altogether...it just gets in the way. Note: I've been using Elixir strings for years, but I go with the 11-52. As BB King says, "why do you want to work so hard"? Cheers.

Thanks for the open G tuning overview.

[@Thebigkeoghowski]

Pearl Jam used open G in their song "Daughter." But,instead of tuning the low E down to D, they, believe it or not, tuned the E up to a G note.

[@johnwilder6310]

I personally like F sharp

[@Tranners_]

Great video this, well explained too

[@jonlarsen3090]

Thanks so much Sean, great lesson!

[@aaroncohenour559]

DOBRO/lapsteel open G is GBDgbd. whyis it? different?

[@hotrock51]

Good one,appreciate this,thaks❤

[@kevin339]

Is this a Martin M36?

[@DannyPoet]

so its like Double drop D but just the extra string tuned

[@andrewbenavidez1454]

How do you feel about city and colour/Dallas green? He uses a lot of open tunings in his earlier stuff

[@johnCjr4671]

Do these Open tunings make scale shapes different or more difficult ? 😮

[@SenfMustard]

Different yes, more difficult no

[@alphanumeric1529]

Brother, you need to be doing Trojan endorsements along with the Elixirs. I mean, have you already? I can see it so clearly, it is like a memory and not just an idea. You've got your Martin humming, the Elixirs, both bright and rich, are working their magik up and down her chakras, making them spin, the lights are down with a couple well placed accent lights, a couple glasses of wine, one with lipstick on it... Your precious gem eyes glint as you resolve from the 7th to the root, and throatily sing her name with just a touch of wanting vulnerability. The Hoover damn is blasted open, and everybody knows, "It's Trojan Time!"

[@antoonhermans8953]

uhh , what kinda strings are you using ??? 😋

[@roberto3262]

47 minutes and no comments? I guess I'm first! 😅

[@PaulReed-lj2ym]

Lmao football season? Baseball playoff? Or pro wrestling?

[@joeb3590]

Ernie ball is offended

[@kaushalsuvarna5156]

This may sound weird, but I dreamt of you, haven't watched your videos a few days, the house is being painted so not playing guitar 😂 Anyway, if you drop by to Pune/Mumbai in India any chance, let me know

[@lonewolf5896]

Love open g ...5 string Keefer style...one finger Barre can play Cocaine easy...

[@1camchy]

This like the sound of his own voice just talking fast and doing nothing

[@derin111]

Exactly my thought too! 👍🏽

[@felix15435]

Listen to Carvel by John frusciante, its so good
