Open G Tuning has uses that range from solo fingerstyle arrangements to electric guitar rhythm parts. In this tutorial, instructor Rob Schumann shows you how to tune a guitar to Open G and form chords out of G major that combine with open string drones to produce a distinctive open sound. For a challenge, try the fingerstyle arrangement that Rob demonstrates at the end of the segment.

this is a spruce top and probably rosewood b/s
I wonder if a set of flatwounds would tame that a bit.
yes. Rainsong carbon fiber guitars are SO loud and bright. a bit too bright for my taste but if you play fingerstyle. hold on to your hats
When Keith Richards plays "Open G" songs (Brown Sugar, Honky Tonk Women, Start Me Up), doesn’t he usually remove the low G string?
is that a carbon fiber acoustic that Erik Mongrain is playing?
Just play Iris already…
He said "fingering" hur hur! No,seriously,good lesson,the open G is a fantastic thing to experiment with very bluesy,good for the slide all good stuff.
looks like it’s a telecaster
Guitar sounds like butter, I want it. Can’t see what it is though.
