QUOTE (Kizaze44 @ Oct 8 2008, 08:30 PM)  You might already be doing this, but learn to play the G chord with middle, ring, and pinky. That makes it real easy to go from C to G and vice versa. When I started out, I was not playing the G this way and had the same problem as you. -Kiz Yeah, same fingering there. Only problem left then is D but if you just practice the switch between C -> D -> C -> D over and over again it will soon come to you. you could also try barré chords for all G C and D or use open G and C while playing D as barré. Or... there's a fingering for the G chord where you fret all the notes on the third fret (+ dampen string with fretting fingers) then you'll have your index finger on the G fret of the low E string. It would then be smooth moving it down one string and strum a barré C chord and then just move to a barré D chord. -------------------- My bands homepage

The most effective way is to spend some time analyzing how your fingers move while switching chords. Try to see exactly what move every finger makes when switching, and try to minimize that movement as much as you can and focus on all the movements involved. This can be tricky since the brain can only focus well on one finger at a time, but try it at a really slow tempo, and do one move at a time, and them combine them together. The speed up a bit and so on. This will definitely improve your switching, but don't forget to leave some time, like a week or so, to let the fresh stuff lay down a bit in your memory.
