Ah Ha! Open G and my OOO-50!

I think I may be on to something. This guitar sounds absolutely FREAKING AWESOME in open G. I saw Nathan Rogers (Stan's son) last night. He played a Laskin in several tunings. I think this guitar sounds easily as good (for around a third as much). Good bloodlines, though. We take you back now to your regular program.

Was it your first time?  :EM> In open G that is.
I have been using my OOO-50 for both open G and D for about a year, both fingerstyle and slide. It is awesome in open D so much that I sometimes get lost improvising up and down the neck with open tuning chord shapes. I did have the nut shimmed a bit to stop the occasional buzz on 5 and 6 from my attack.

Yes OOO-50's are FREAKING AWESOME!

My list of reasons for not buying one of these is getting shorter...

There's a four letter word on there (CASH) that may become the only hurdle.  :UND>

Yeah, I rarely use open tunings other than drop D. Often, I think they just make every song sound the same. So I was just fooling around and wowsers, open D will be next.
Cash? Wife? I had the first, barely, and was between the latter. Ha ha. I'm moving in with my girlfriend in June. This may be my last guitar.     Good thing I'm loving it!
