When I perform my two main guitars are typically tuned (low to high) in DADGAD and in Open C, CGCGCE. For slide work I tune to either Open D, DADF#AD or Open G with a unison G on the bottom, GGDGBE. Note: If you are going to try a unison G on the bottom, don't just tune up your E string but re-string the sixth string with a lighter gauge such as that used for your fifth string. I also use variants of these tunings such as DGDGAD, CGDGAD, double-drop D DADGBD and CGCGCD. Occasionally I'll use a Kyser Drop D capo (it capos strings 5 through 1 leaving 6 open or turn it around and capo 6 through 2 leaving 1 open) and I find it a great way to get into some tunings that would not be practical any other way.
