| | Open D tuning - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Open D tuning is an alternate tuning for the acoustic or electric guitar. |  | | This tuning is also used for regular (non-slide) guitar playing. |  | | The full and vibrant sound it produces - particularly on an acoustic guitar - also makes it ideal for fingerstyle playing. |

| | Equal Temperament Tuning |
 | | Tuning the 4th string: Play a harmonic on the (in tune) 6th string at twelve, and as this harmonic sounds, adjust the 4th string until the tone E on the second fret is in pure unison. |  | | Tuning the 3rd string: As it is easier to adjust a string while listening to a continuous reference tone, you may first try the following: Play a harmonic on the (in tune) 4th string at twelve and as this sounds, adjust the 3rd string until D at the 7th fret is in pure unison. |  | | They tune their guitar beautifully pure on one chord only to discover that the next chord form is unacceptable. |

| | OPEN Tuning cultures - Acoustic Guitar Forum |
 | | This tuning is of course a prototype for all the open ternary tunings: a triad and octaves of the I and V intervals. |  | | However, I don’t see open tunings in guitar music as any sort of devolution of the so-called standard modern guitar tuning; rather in most of the instances you’re thinking about, they’re an atavism from a vogue for Spanish guitar music dating to the first half of the 19th century. |  | | I didn't know that the "Vastapol" and "Spanish" tunings were originally notated as though for standard tuning, using the sheet music as a form of tablature. |

| | Bob Brozman's Open Tuning Basic Lesson |
 | | The two G notes are still found at the 5th and 3rd strings, but instead of roots as in G tuning, they are now the fifth in the key of C. Eb The C family of tunings is very wide open for creative improvising and composing music. |  | | Bb The bottom end of this tuning with its root-fifth-root bass strings, is similar to D tuning. |  | | It is almost impossible to sound bad in open tunings, since there are so many beautiful matching tones. |

| | Music Theory for the Short Attention Span from FolkBlues.Com |
 | | From DADGAD, Open D or Open D Minor, all you need to do is drop the original G string to D. It takes a few twists, but all you have to do is make it sound like the D string next to it. |  | | We all learned the guitar in standard tuning, except for those odd characters who learned to play with no guidance at all, and tuned their guitars until they sounded good to them. |  | | But as important is the value they offer in understanding how the guitar works to make music, and how musical notes can be organized on a tunable instrument. |

| | Open Tuning Part I : Lesson by David Hodge |
 | | This is disastrous to the guitar's intonation (the guitar will sound in tune when you play it open, but it will stop being in tune with itself). |  | | But it made me think, "Hey, couldn't I tune my guitar so that when I strum it, I'll get a nice straight chord as well?" So I tuned the G string to G#, the D to E and the A to B and, yes indeed, I had a great E major chord at my disposal. |  | | It's best for your guitar to pick one tuning and stay with it for a while. |

| | Historical Tuning |
 | | Such music was composed to be played on specific tunings such as meantone or well temperament, not equal temperament, which is almost exclusively used today. |  | | Therefore, an important dimension of music is lost when it is played on a tuning not intended by the composer. |  | | Even fewer people understand the differences and are able to tune a piano or harpsichord as did Bach and other composers before him. |
