I never tried, I love the regular open chords too much.
the missing fret is an atempt to unify the families of voicings relating 
to 
the families of shapes
there are some open tunings and altered tunings in the record though
I say altered because I like to change only some strings to "easyfy" up 
some 
keys without changin it all
ex: EADGBbD  gives a great key to play in F Cm Gm Eb Bb etc....

I send this reply back to LD as it may interest some others
hope you dont mind

thanks
