yeah, but dont try doing an open G tuning on an acoustic, its almost sure to bust the low e string and/or the bridge, depending on if its a cheapass guitar or if its a good one with good glue for the bridge. just a word of advice.

Duane Allman was in the band "The Allman brothers" if you've ever heard of them, they were formed in 1969 and are still playin today. Im not too big into them, im more of a 'dead' guy myself, but i'd just suggest to download some live early 70s ABB stuff, preferably before 1972.
