Playing the bouzouki in GDAE tuning.

Chords for GDAE tuning.

This page has all the information that is specific to the G,DAE bouzouki tuning. Even though this tuning is more typically associated with the Octave Mandola (or Octave Mandolin as they prefer to call it in the US) and the Irish Tenor Banjo, some people use it on the bouzouki as well, and I've had quite a few requests for chords in this tuning.

So I finally put together a chord chart for this tuning as well, which is now available here, in 3 formats:

Plain text:

This gives per line the fingerings and corresponding note names, makes an attempt to name the chord, and occasionally a remark on usage.

PostScript:

This gives chord diagrams for all the chords. Of course it does not contain all the remarks and annotations that the text version has, but it's a lot easier to read.
To use the PostScript file you either need a PostScript printer, or the GhostScript software, which lets you print PostScript on most other printers.

Adobe .PDF format:

For those who already have the Adobe Acrobat Reader, the chord diagram files are now also available in .PDF format (thanks to Bill McKenty for suggesting this).
