Tonight’s song/idea/improv is titled “JAM 150” in the key of F Major.
I couldn’t decide which of the 5 ideas I had for tonight’s tuning to publish so instead of choosing, I threw a bunch of them together into this nice little jam package.
I can’t believe it’s really been 150 tunings this year. I wasn’t sure if it was even possible when I started and although it’s been challenging personally and musically, I’ve been able to do it.
Get your toast and knife…I’ll bring the jam!
Since this is a “jam” – the chords below focus only on the main riff of the improvisation.
May these daily alt tunings continue to inspire you as you explore songwriting beyond the limitations of standard tuning.

Until next time…
