(Look for a 5:07 version of the recording, if you're not familiar with it.)

I've also seen "Bad Motor Scooter" by Montrose listed as "probably open G." I think "Midnight Rider" (Allman Brothers Band) might be, too, but I've also seen it one place as DADGBd. Anything that shows up as "xGDGBd" (like "Honky Tonk Women") is probably because Keef removed his sixth string.]]> Slide and Alternate tunings Doug_C https://guitarnoise.forum/slide-and-alternate-tunings/open-g-songs-2/paged/2/#post-167119 https://guitarnoise.forum/slide-and-alternate-tunings/open-g-songs-2/#post-155115 Sat, 28 Jan 2006 18:18:50 +0000 Slide and Alternate tunings tinsmith https://guitarnoise.forum/slide-and-alternate-tunings/open-g-songs-2/#post-155115 https://guitarnoise.forum/slide-and-alternate-tunings/open-g-songs-2/#post-154972 Sat, 28 Jan 2006 03:10:24 +0000 Slide and Alternate tunings dsparling https://guitarnoise.forum/slide-and-alternate-tunings/open-g-songs-2/#post-154972 https://guitarnoise.forum/slide-and-alternate-tunings/open-g-songs-2/#post-154872 Fri, 27 Jan 2006 20:06:26 +0000 Slide and Alternate tunings DemoEtc https://guitarnoise.forum/slide-and-alternate-tunings/open-g-songs-2/#post-154872 https://guitarnoise.forum/slide-and-alternate-tunings/open-g-songs-2/#post-154793 Fri, 27 Jan 2006 12:19:47 +0000 Slide and Alternate tunings jonnyt https://guitarnoise.forum/slide-and-alternate-tunings/open-g-songs-2/#post-154793 https://guitarnoise.forum/slide-and-alternate-tunings/open-g-songs-2/#post-154628 Thu, 26 Jan 2006 22:11:50 +0000
