This one's good too.
Love me some Rage Against the Machine.
Here's a four chord progression I'm trying to work into something. Using the 1, 5, 8 tuning.

I've also learned that you can play lower that an open G in a G,D,G (158 ) tuning.

There are still a lot of variations I can try to add to this run. This is why I'm always videoing what I do. If I get stuck. Or run out of ideas I can watch this tatter. Sometimes all it takes is a bit of time away to make something work.
Trying to play jazz on a ukulele at the moment. I've just discovered ukuleles and the revelation has led to an accumulation of yet more instruments :-\
Well, I'm only 28 miles south of the Mason Dixon line (in West Virginia), but I don't find that location influencing me at all. I'm only a little over 4 months into playing CBG, and I'm really into the mellow/folksy, fingerpicking thing for now...no guitar picks, slides or distortion as of yet. I can't pinpoint what style I'm doing at all. I'm just playing what comes out of me, and I'm not aiming for anything, or limiting myself to one genre of music. So far, it's been all Open G Tuning for me, as I am too lazy to keep re-tuning my guitar.
No offense here at all, LOL. There are stereotypes out there. And here in West Virginia, LOL. There's no denying that, but I hail from a hard rock background. My roots are more towards 1970's-1980's hard rock, than old skool American blues players (which I think alot of hard rock pioneers borrowed from).
Like you, I've not settled into any one style. But we're CBG noobs, so it might take some time to find where we gravitate to stylistically (and naturally). I too will just start out with a simple fingerpicking pattern that I like, and often will find a part to lead right into, but then I get stuck. I usually end up with just two parts. Then after a couple of times playing it (sometimes over days) the next part will develop, and often snowball from there. Sometimes I end up with too much, and have to hack it back (a leftover habit from being an old skool "prog" rocker as well).
