Amazing Grace on slide guitar in Open G tuning

[frankmartinrocks]

should try to mess around with the chords, would give it a cool richer sound

yeah it's just really confusing going from standard tuning to open g. now i don't know where any chords are haha.

[frankmartinrocks]

I know, it's easy to get lost.... but it's really simple actually, Starting from the open G, if you move everything up 5 frets (G#, A, A#, B, C), well you got a C chord. Move up again 2 frets to the 7th, you got a D chord. G, C and D are the most common chords you'il be using in open tuning. If you're wondering, the chords (3 beats each letter) are G G C G G G D D G G C G G D G then try adding melody good luck!
