I just started playing with my worship team at church last week. These have helped incredibly with adding new coloring to the same 4 chord shapes. Thanks for taking the time to create this! Subscribed for more
I like taking that whole D/F# shape up to the G and A chords as well. Fairly easy to add on that E string. Also, on the D chord, adding the C# and making it a 7th chord is really nice. Cool lesson! Thanks for sharing!
@@kylescott4 you're right, I meant a major 7th, but come to think of it, you can really get any variation up there. Drop it to the C for a D7 and even move the other fingers for a D minor 7 if you like (although those aren't in the key of D, clearly, but the Em7 is). Thanks for that lol!
I keep trying to incorporate my thumb. Maybe its just all my guitars. Probably should roll some fretboards to get me going. I have one of them thumbs that has a pronounced backwards bend, knuckle is full 90 when up in comfortable resting position. Now my thumb isnt short, it just seems even on my smaller necks, no matter which chord, I lose a ton of finger mobility when I slip the thumb over and depress the E. Ive tried various positions, feels, just cant seem to make it work. I'd love to have it as a hack, available in the toolkit. Even for a slip on and off for F# over D I cant make it work right, natural. Long bendy thumb I thought I have. My other strings have a great chance of slipping and buzzing then. Seems it would be useful to have to pivot or rotate the hand less in some situations could save milliseconds.
