In this easy-to-follow tutorial, Elixir® Strings artist John Connearn takes you through the chords built on the notes of the D Major scale, with the Open D tuning allowing for some beautiful chord extensions. The best thing is that the tuning gives access to these while keeping the fingering simple. The deep sound of Open D is great for solo guitar tunes or accompanying singers, so follow along and even if the theory is beyond you, John will have you playing huge-sounding chords in no time!
