I did some investigating on one or two of the the web's interactive tuning/chord sites but will report if i find anything else that's interesting, one interactive thingy here for Ukes, Mandolins and Banjos could be useful...

"All chords are calculated and therefore may not be really playable!"

http://4stringchords.com/

 

and Alan's open D chart ...

https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/305749808?profi...

 

and a tuning guide for Banjos with sound bites...

http://www.get-tuned.com/online_mandolin_tuner.php

 

For starters here's a  GDGB chart i found on the Handmade Music Clubhouse submitted by Billy Freedom, lots here to try out!

 

Complete Open G for 4 strings

 

...and a link to a new 4 string chord chart by Greasestains...
