Bluegrass Guitar Lesson: Playing in Open D
An essential element of the bluegrass guitar aesthetic is the strategic use of open strings to craft fluid, tasteful melodic runs. Without the use of a capo or altered tuning, well-versed bluegrass acoustic guitar players frequently utilize open strings within their melodic phrases when playing in both the major and minor key centers of E, A, G, C, and D. Due to the nature of the guitar’s construction and where the notes happen to fall on the fretboard in standard tuning, integrating open string lines within these five key centers is exceptionally natural. That being said, it’s important for aspiring bluegrass guitarists to be intimately familiar with playing in the open position of these five keys, and, as such, it’s critical to invest time into learning them.
