Standard Open D Tuning
Best For Acoustic Guitar
There are two options for tuning:
NUMBER ONE - OPEN D (With a capo on 1)
Some people might prefer this as open D is a more common tuning and could be used on a
set with other songs!
It also means only tuning strings down, which reduces the chance of them breaking on
etc..! All following
notation is relative to the capo!
D (D?wn)
A (D?wn)
F# (D?wn)
D
A
D (D?wn)
NUMBER TWO - OPEN Eb
This is an alternative if you dont have a capo and are willing to risk your strings, but
is esentially the same!
Eb (D?wn)
Bb (D?wn)
G
Eb (Up)
Bb (Up)
Eb (D?wn)
