Every tuning has hard chords. But I'd teach them a simple and pretty G:

020000 (Gadd9/D) and just tell them it's "G". 1 finger.

Or 5x0400 to get the root in there, 2 fingers. Or get rid of the 9th with 5x0450, still pretty easy. The muted 5th string will just happen, hard not to do it!

Doug, I take this opportunity to say that I'm big fan of your playing. I first heard of you through guitar reviews and appreciated how you always played the right tunes -- and played them beautifully.
Thanks! I appreciate that.
