does anyone know of artists who commonly use open D tunings? (DADF#AD)
i remember the frustration of trying to learn guitar as a tyke ie. play along to some fave 60/70s pop hits by following Barry's fingering (and NON-fingering) but it sound very much like crap...decades later i found out he was using an open tuning, duh (which is still difficult unless you have a long, strong ring finger)
YouTube - Medley (Midnight Special, 1975)
i suppose richie valens, no?
