An open G-tuning could be DGDGBD instead of EADGBE, which is a normal tuning
And yes, you can use this tuning on almost any kind of guitar, but guitars with steel strings would be better for slide guitar.
How do you play a minor cord
How do you play a minor cord on the dobro
well open G tuning will make it impossible to make minor chords, but you can tune your guitar in D5 (DADDAD) or E5 (EBEEBE) which is neither minor or major. you get a cool john butler treat-yo-mama sound

Some of them are set up for regular playing, or using a pipe slide with fretting.
does any one ever use a normal tuning for slide guitar

In my language (Slovenian) DOBRO means GOOD…. But a bit diffrent accent.
is that in standard tuning?
dobro was invented by slovaks so it’ s original slovak name..
it depends, but you can get an entry level one by fender or dean (dozens of companies make them) for around $400. They’re great for beginning, but they often smell like glue. You can always pay more.
I’m pretty sure it’s in open G. So that is either DGDGBD, or some other configuration. maybe GBDGBD. The former is easier to switch from standard with.
its open G
Love the Dobro guitar! Thanxs for posting!
In Poland DOBRO means GOOD too
I am visually impaired, and I’m looking for some instructional material for the Dobro. I need a DVD or CD where the instructor describes what he’s doing verbally rather than just visually. Do you have any recommendations? Thanks.
Nice demo!
It’s an abbreviation of Dopyera Brothers, the inventors of the resonator guitar.
