Feel like you're in a guitar rut? Maybe you're craving a fresh perspective to ignite your creativity? Try using banjo tuning, specifically open G tuning. Seriously!
In this video, we're starting from scratch-taking your guitar from standard tuning to open G tuning. And don't worry, I'll guide you through each string's pitch so you can get the tuning just right.
Once we're in tune, we dive into the heart of this lesson-exploring three magical chord shapes you can use in open G tuning. I'm going to walk you through the barre-chord shape, the stairstep shape, and the reverse stairstep shape. You'll learn how to play major and minor chords with them, opening up a whole new realm of sonic possibilities!
Next up, we're focusing on scale shapes in open G tuning. Understanding scale shapes is essential for riff creation, songwriting, and simply jamming out in this vibrant and versatile tuning.
This episode isn't just about learning a new tuning, though. It's about broadening your horizons as a musician. Learning how to play another instrument, like a banjo in this case, can significantly improve your guitar playing. It unlocks new sonic patterns and presents new ways of approaching your guitar.
