    Awesome demonstration. I bought acoustic years ago because I really like the African guitar sound, but I never practiced. Out of the blue today I picked up my guitar and searched how to tune to desert blues and landed here. I broke my 1st string trying to tune it to a C not realizing I was tuning 1st string and not the 2nd. But that not going to stop me.

    Molto interessante, spesso suono in accordatura aperta, ma questa non la avevo mai provata, ha delle sonorità molto celtiche, ma credo che anche il blues viene molto bene

    Warning ⚠️: This tuning will take a toll on your strings. Just snapped my G string (heh) while tuning to the B flat. The strings were fairly new too. Great lesson though! I’m a huge fan of Ali Farka Toure, this was fun to play around with.

    I was thinking about that a little when I saw this video. Maybe the way to do it is to first tune all strings down a whole tone, put a capo on 2nd fret, and then continue with the tuning procedure as shown in the video.

    That's exactly what I ended up doing! I also realised i messed up initially. When he shows us the minor variant of the tuning I thought he tuned the G string to a B flat, but it was actually the A string. Oops!
