Tuning Information
Open G Tuning
D.G.D.G.B.D
In the Open G tuning, the strings are tuned to a G major chord, making it easy to play in the key of G and in related keys. Though often used in 'folk' music, Jimmy Page's Bron-Y-Aur Stomp shows that this is more a matter of tradition than of necessity.

The top four strings are the same as the common G tuning for banjo, so banjo players will find it easy. Alternatively, if you find the open G tuning fun, why not give the banjo a try? The second, third, and fourth strings are tuned exactly the same as in the standard EBGDAE tuning. All chord and scale forms on these three strings remain the same, making Open G one of the easiest alternate tunings to play in. As with most open tunings, the multiple D and G strings can be easily used to make up new ways of fingering chords. For more chord forms, note that the Open G tuning is sandwiched between the Open G Minor and the Modal G tunings. Both of these chord charts can be used for additional Open G chords with only minor modifications.

Testimonies From Guitar Players Around The World

"The layout and content of this application cannot be over-praised! Unbelievably thorough reference for anything you want to learn about guitar chords and notation, including complete support for traditional and non-traditional scales. It's completely intuitive and a just a joy to use. The team that created this application should (virtually) stand up and take a bow! If we don't have a million more great guitar players in the coming years, it will not be because this app didn't exist. TRY IT!" Bill McNichols

"I for one have been playing guitar for 58 years till now every coarse I ever did could not explain as simple as this it is by far the the best tutorer someone like me could under stand and appreciate to the builder of this software well done indeed." Rima Hemi

"Very nice application and useful tool for guitarists. Nice layout and design. Easy interface for navigating. Very nice for a free application. I saw no reference that it was merely a trial version, so I would be very disappointed if at some point it stops working and I need to pay. I don't mind paying for things if the developers are up front with things and say it's a trial." David Goguen
