Subject: RE: Help: What's this chord From: Don Firth Date: 25 Apr 01 - 12:37 PM OOOOOO OXOOOO XOOOXO Okay. If you play all but the first string (the highest in pitch), it's a G chord. For a G, you need the notes G (root), B (3rd), and D (5th). So the chord spells out
OOOOOO Now, if the line breaks work. . . . Don Firth |

Subject: RE: Help: What's this chord From: Grab Date: 25 Apr 01 - 12:23 PM It's just another G chord, only with a different selection of notes. A G chord is anything containing only the notes G, B and D. 3rd fret on the B string is D. This is assuming you don't play the top E string open, or that you put another finger back on 3rd fret on the top E string. If you do play the top E string open, that's G6. The normal way of writing chords is to give a list of 6 numbers, where the left-most number is the fret held down on the bottom E and the right-most number is the fret held down on the top E. Open strings are shown as 0. So a basic G would be 320003, and your G6 variant would be 320030. I guess you tried to do ASCII-art for the chord diagram, but unfortunately it doesn't work in Mudcat - you need to know some HTML to format it correctly. :-( Using numbers as shown avoids the problem. Graham. |

Subject: RE: Help: What's this chord From: GUEST,Brad Sondahl Date: 25 Apr 01 - 12:13 PM The hard returns didn't translate. The first row of 0's is the first fret. The second set is the second fret, etc. As I say, it's just a standard G chord, except moving the finger from the sixth string to the fifth. |

Subject: RE: Help: What's this chord From: Don Firth Date: 25 Apr 01 - 11:32 AM Brad, I'm afraid there's not enough information to go on. I presume the Os indicate open strings. If you replace the Xs with fret numbers, I could tell you what the chord is. You would also need to indicate which strings you are playing. Don Firth |

Subject: What's this chord? From: GUEST,Brad Sondahl Date: 25 Apr 01 - 11:19 AM I've learned guitar on my own, and found I use this variation of a G chord a lot--moving the finger usually on the third fret, sixth string, to same position, fifth string. I don't always sound the sixth string with it, but will if the note is applicable. This is the way it looks. 000000 0X0000 X000X0 I'm a finger picker, so I usually play the chord with my last three fingers... So, what's it called? Brad http://pages.about.com/bsondahl |
