You are so right, M. Ted. Sorry to have made things so confusing. I basically learned early on listening to R. Johnson and Skip James records that a lot of those early delta bluesman would capo to match a key to their vocal range while keeping the same bass line options and chord voicings they wanted. In other words, if you're tuned standard playing in A major and you want to change to B flat major, don't go through a lot of left hand contortions, just capo up a fret and stay in "A." I may therefoe be using my own terminology when describing these positions. First, second, third, etc....would probably be a lot less confusing when you can't actually sit across the room from each other watching. Basically, I guess all the chords that would be played down near the nut in their most basic form using open strings, E, G, A, C, and D can be capoed up. My peculiar, maybe unique, and probably confusing terminology would define those positions when capoed, as the chord or scale positions you'd be in if you weren't capoed, but back down in first position around the nut. But you're right, the bottom line revolves around trying to get the muic right!
