This is a conundrum for many who are new to open tunings, so well done for taking the time to record and share your thoughts. All the best.

Thanks for that nice comment. Hope to hear some tunes soon!

This has been great help to me, I have written a few of my songs in open D tuning and I would always have to find my own way when it came to playing anything minor in this tuning but the explantion you give on how to play the full minor chords is simple and clear, they don't sound so paper thin and it is awesome!! To bad people have to be so rude about the video, It has been helpful to me!! I'm going to go finish writing my new song Thanks Craig!!

Good work Craig. I couldn't care who invented or discovered this. You took the time to share it so thanks. Now my time to be holier than thou. Give folks a break some of you commentators. Who cares if we can find fault. I'm just glad people bother to contribute. And btw, Skip James was a fingerpicker. Craig, who seems to focus on chords, explained pretty well why the D minor tuning didn't work as well for him.

Being the fair guy that I am, I have added an appropriate annotation to the video, and at some point I will re-do the video so it is more to your liking, and doesn't suggest that I know everything about playing open D. Now do I sound like a guy who want's to have a "holier than thou attitude"?

CraigTube (January 1, 1970 at 12:59 am)

I'm sorry you feel that way. So, if I was to make an updated open D video, now that I know more about it, what would you have me do or say different? I'm always open to constructive criticisms and corrections, but you could provide that without being a prick. Why don't you take the time to provide a video on open D tuning, and grace us all with your wisdom? Troll.

no - skip is the one that's deadI wish craigtube would realize that he doesn't have any right to say what is or isn't right on the guitar being a novice player like he isnot even expert guitarists can say that because someone with experience on the guitar knows that all that matters is whether you can make it sing or notcraigtube - big thumbs down for your holier than thou attitude
