“Bud’s Bounce” was one of a series of classic instrumentals composed by pedal steel legend Bud Isaacs. This arrangement for acoustic steel guitar in Open D tuning is based on an arrangement for electric steel guitar created by Australian teacher and musician, Guy Cundell mixed with my own ideas for the tune. 

OPEN D TUNING is found in the folk music of many countries around the world. In American Folk and Blues circles, it was often referred to as Vestapol tuning, after a popular 19th Century song played in that tuning. It remains probably the most popular tuning for Weissenborn and Dobro after Open G.
