    Literally what I've been doing for the past 5 years. The amazing thing about this type of tuning is that you can free your 3rd, 4th and pinky fingers and let them explore additional notes out of the standard major chords. Not only additional notes but also it enables doubling notes (same notes for multiple strings which create beautiful harmonics). I can't write any new material without alternate tunings anymore!

    Thanks Kenneth for this guitar tutorial. My two favourite guitars are, my Crafted in Japan, Jazzmaster. Upgraded with Lollar pickups, and my standard, Crafted in Japan, Lake Placid Blue Jaguar. Johnny Marr and Kevin Shields are my favourite guitarists by far. They're absolute geniuses.

    I like to tune D as 75/150/300, A as 112.5/225/450, and depending on whatever other notes I might use, 187.5 for an F#, 200 for G, and other more even intervals. Playing around with being “out of tune” can give interesting tones.

      I guess you played it right. Johnny Marr may have used a Capo and then it becomes an open E tuning.

      No, it was pretty much jammed. But possibly Deer Hunter are playing similar riffs in one of their songs.

    Nice lesson. I'm a bass player and yet to play with tuning variations. Just happy to have chorus and flange. But I'm curious to see if Cocteau Twins or Autumn's Grey Solace use any of these techniques as well. But I do remember hearing that the original guitarist for the B-52s came up with several tunings for different songs. But I'm sure it's just a good excuse to buy more guitars.

    Check out Chris Whitley’s music. He died in 2009. He used some different tunings
    Check out Jeff Buckley’s music. He died in ‘98. He used some alternate tunings but it was the way he used the fretboard and the way he wrote songs that was really creative. And his voice.

      @mooseyard 2 года назад

      I believe DADGAD gives you a suspended chord with open strings or a bar, so it’s a bit more unsettling/ambiguous than the D major chord.
