Answer 3

@DanJS you explained this but idk what you meant...

Answer 4

is that, X-mute first string, O - open second string

Answer 5

so the A string will ring open first

Answer 6

I have quite a few like these, so if you can explain this one really well... ill stop bothering you.. xD my treat to you. except until i get to the essays, since i have to write them in words i may need guidance on what i should say... anyways proceed. ok, what is the A string again? the second one or 4th?

Answer 7

i havent read tabs like those in awhile, pretty sure the low string is on the left, X-mute, O- open string, the numbers on the frets are the finger to use i think

Answer 8

yeah, that looks like an A chord without the 4th string used

Answer 9

a downstroke here would ring strings in order
2 - 3 - 5 - 6

what about that 4th string, it has no X or O on it, assumed muted?

Answer 10

thanks got that part down. any idea of-
An open position chord

uses open strings
uses a barre
is movable
does not use open strings

... also it rings the fifth one first i believe i did some research off the facts you gave me and it said 5 ...

Answer 11

nvm i got this oe too thanks
