Hi all and aloha
I am experimenting with some open tuning and wondering if one is “best”?
I am primarily a singer and accompany myself with the ukulele. I play tenor with a low g. I became interested in open g tuning after watching some 4 string guitar and a slide blues player commenting that the open g meant the root note was always on the g string.
I am trying open g tuning with GBDG linear tuning.
There seems to be more resources for open c tuning and I am not sure if it is best to have the root note on the g string (open g tuning) or have the lower V below the root note on the low g string (c tuning) and the root on the c string.
Love to hear your experiences about what works best. I generally strum while I sing Rather than melody pick so want to make my picking “easy”.
Thanks
David
