...about OPEN TUNINGS and playing in different KEYS OF MUSIC Standard Tuning: EADGBE developed over time and is a compensated tuning that seeks to play functionally in all 12 keys of music (Chromatic). This gives the instrument versatility. Open Tunings due to the fact the guitar is being tuned to a specific chord, usually functions better when arranging songs in that key (Diatonic). Similar to those small harmonicas. This is generally due to the fact, access to all the various chords is not so easily accomplished. Although, like the videos introduction clarifies, arranging songs in the 5th of the key works out well. Here I also demonstrate that Spanish Tuning which is commonly associated with the key of G: DGDGBD can be tuned down to the key of E: BEBEG#B, which most players associate with Vestapol Tuning: EBEG#BE. youtu.be/ebYK4Ikiauw
