Playing guitar in open D tuningopens interesting possibilities. For example, it isn't necessary to hold down the bass E string when playing a D chord - a deeper bass gives the guitar a low down, bluesy feel but also lends itself to ragtime picking. The acoustic guitar lessons in this course explains how to tune down to open D tuning and open G tuning, and presents several videos teaching a variety of songs in these open guitartunings.

Open G guitar tuning is of particular interest and we take a look how Robert Johnson, King of Delta Blues Guitar used it to create songs such as Walkin' Blues and Crossroads.
