So last night I decided to try and come up with the most obscure open tunings ever. I came up with some pretty cool stuff...most of it is undecipherable...or I just haven't tried...lol

But what are some of your favorite open tunings?

I haven't really done different tunings except drop d. Oh actually before I did this mad one where the tuning was reversed, upside down! It sounded wierd.

I haven't messed around that much with tunings, but I really like DADGAD and the one Page uses in When the Levee Breaks (open F, maybe?)

half step below drop d. the only problem is the 1st string doesn't hold the note too well.

I prefer open tunings. Kieth Richards is the king of that. I use a capo when I need to get in the right key.
