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!
D5 (D?wn)
A5 (D?wn)
F#5 (D?wn)
D5
A5
D5 (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!
Eb5 (D?wn)
Bb5 (D?wn)
G5
Eb5 (Up)
Bb5 (Up)
Eb5 (D?wn)
