    AN OVERVIEW OF OPEN D TUNING:
    I discuss the basics of Open D tuning and go over some chord shapes to get you started.
    Changing the tuning of your guitar can provide ideas for new sounds and, ultimately, serve as an inspiration for new songs. Also, tune to open D and use a Capo to explore the open tune shapes in other keys.
    I demonstrate two songs that came out of that tuning.
    I've included a document with some of the chord shapes (both Google Doc and PDF).

    Thanks for posting. I started exploring open D a few years back and it opened up a new world of sounds on guitar for me. These days, whenever I try a new song one of the first things I do is to say 'I wonder what it sounds like in open D?' Some don't work but with quite a few I find it actually adds to the overall feel of the song, particulary those melodic and slower numbers.

      I'll do another video soon on Open G - which also led to a song I'm currently producing.
      I agree, the open tunings lead to and add a very pleasing melodic element.
      Thanks for stopping by and for commenting. It is appreciated.

      Thank you for taking the time to comment. I'm glad it was helpful. I keep meaning to do a video on open G tuning as well but I've allowed work and recording to dominate my time.

    I've watched a few open D videos, and something I've noticed is that chords can easily sound muddy to me when strumming because of the constant droning of the highest D and A. They seem to overpower whatever chord is being played. That works sometimes, but hearing it constantly just isn't pleasing to my ears. This tuning does, however, work wonderfully for fingerpicking and slide. When I've heard open D songs played that way, they sound great. BTW, I like your singing voice. Gonna go check out the rest of your videos.

      I agree that full strumming on some chord shapes can be muddy or too full. This is especially true for chords using strings 4, 5, & 6. I guess, as with most things music, it comes down to awareness and taste. Specifically, for Marie, because the bass line runs down string 5 and 6, fingerpicking was necessary. My song, Coward and the Fool, uses the "same" tuning but capo'd on 5 (Open C). The chords are generally focused on strings 1-4 and when strings 5 or 6 are included, other strings are muted or de-emphasized.
      I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and comment.

      Hi @drumweaver. The guitar is a Gibson J45 - spruce top and mahogany back and sides.
