A mix of blues and Hawaiian slack key and steel guitar. Tuning open G but raised a half step so its D#G#D#G#CD# The Hawaiian part is based on Mai Kai No Kauai Tablature available at my website www.daddystovepipe.com Im playing a dobro made by Joseph Yanuziello

  1. dude this is so awesome
    i just started playing in open tunings
    and this is very inspiring nice hat too

  2. there’s no halfnote between B and C so that’s why it’s a C – consider it like I’m playing with a capo at the first fret – then you get D#G# etc
    the song is perfectly playable in DGDGBD, my version is tuned up because you get a greater string tension with a clearer sound as a result

  3. You say your tunning is D#G#D#G#CD#, if so, you’re saying that the Open G you’re using is DGDGB#D.

    What’s the difference in having the 2nd string half a step higher than usual?
    Is this song not playable on regular DGDGBD?

  4. wow..At first I was a bit doubtful when I saw the video title, but man you nailed it perfectly! that was an excellent piece. merci beucoup!

  5. No, this one was made by Canadian Joseph Yanuziello.
    I found it used on ebay a couple years ago.

  6. Holy cow! Is there no style that you won’t take a shot at? You hit that one right out of the ballpark. Keep up the good work!

  7. Great great tune!!!
    I love your style!
    5 STARS for your job.

  8. Lovely playing, lovely control of your slide and of dampening. Excellent
