Ive just recently started to break away from standard tuning...
I dont know why it took me so long.
I so far have been messing around with open D tuning and I really love the sound...so Ive just been experimenting and seeing what sounds good...started looking up chords for oepn D etc...making stuff up and going with the flow.....

Ive played a few things in drop D....

but thats about it....

anyone have any other alternate tunings they like to play in or want to suggest? My friend recently bought the Gibson dark fire....amazing how fast it tunes ...love the ability to say ok tune to this now and wham it goes right to it without thinking...but it somes at a pretty hefty price!

I have 3 acoustics ( one not so great one I use for travel and the beach ) but I have been keeping one in open D all the time now....I love it
