GMC Forum _ PRACTICE ROOM _ Blues Endings In A

Posted by: Kapto Oct 19 2008, 09:39 AM

Hi there
I just started practising this lesson http://www.guitarmasterclass.net/rhythm-guitar/blues-endings-in-a/
when I came across the last 2 chords on bar #4 I don't know how to play them properly. Does the ring finger play 4th and 5th string at the same time? If so I have a problem as I mute the 3rd string
Thank You

I believe those are two 7th chords,Bb and A to be precise,
index finger is covering low E,D and high E string,
middle finger is on A string,ring finger is on G string
and pinky is on B string.

The Tab and Gp4 file comes as this:

--6---5--
--9---8--
--7---6--
(--8---7--) I think is --6----5 to play the 7th note not the root one
--8---7--
--6---5--

1 string A
2 string G
3 string C#
4 string A (here's my problem unless the notation is wrong and means G note which would make things much more easier)
5 string E
6 string A

Thanks Muris for replying

1st version is correct one I thing,
index figer is holding at 6th fret over Bb7 chord,note is Ab on D string,
then 5th fret on same string over A7 chord,note is G,
so yeah,index is playing 7th both time,not the root.

You're welcome tho.
