alternate tunings songbooks?
I've been practicing a couple of fingerstyle arrangements of Beatles songs that happen to be in drop--D tuning. I'm wondering if there are any songbooks (preferably fingerstyle) dedicated to a particular alternate tuning, such as one in drop-D, one in DADGAD, etc. Does anyone know?

For dadgad, I have a tape of Don Ross that covers some great material that I would recommend. Info http://www.gobyfish.com/
Another real gem, although not a song book per say is "The Complete Book Of Alternate Tunings" by Mark Hanson. It has all the different tunings, artist lists with songs played in which tuning, what cord patterns are available in each tuning. I also has a section of songs that are frequently played in alternate tuning when the song was written in standard tuning. |
