    I've been playing in Open B and Open C for probably 15 years. I can't imagine ever playing in standard again.

      I have a question for you,
      Do you play chord shapes, scales, arpeggios etc. of standard tuning in the altered tuning? like the names of notes in standard tuning in altered tuning or you learn the new shapes, notes, scales etc in the new tuning.

      kiba vlood i am maybe late, but better late than never
      you don’t have to learn the shapes, you have to learn how the scale is created :
      for example the (f# dorian scale) is composed of (F# G# A B C# D# E F#)
      you have to use these notes on you fingerboard (so first you need to know where all the notes are on your fingerboard), and adapt it to your tuning
      I don’t know if it’s the right way to compose something, but that’s how I would do it (i’m currently learning how to find my notes on my fingerboard). and if i am wrong or you think differently, tell me !

      @@gaetanfonte9563 More or less yes. But i think of it in intervals, like "ok im looking at my middle finger playing a minor 7th note in this chord and i want to add a 4th...where can i get a 4th from a minor 7th, ah, here, over here *adds the extra 4th onto the chord*"
      But i only learned how to access the intervals in the first place by knowing how a scale is formed, so, yea

      @scruffybones321 6 лет назад

      Maybe a bit late to reply, but use whatever guitar and tuning you like! The choice of guitar shouldn't be a problem, but the main thing would be using the right gauge of strings to give you the best tension and playability for your desired tuning (and for standard, that'd probably be 9 or 10 gauge, maybe 8 of you have an especially light touch).
