    In lesson 4 as illustrated the 1 is B not G# ?  Should it be played as a bare cord ?

    Hey Martin, I don’t understand your question. Can you clarify a bit?

    In general, all these chords are not barred. They are called power chords and are an alternative to barre chords. But  you need to avoid strumming the low E string

    The the 4th  fret on the G string is B. Unless you bar it there is not a G# in the shape or am I missing something ?

    oh, I see. Yes, the 4th fret pressed down on the G string would be a B note. The G# note shows up with your pinky on the 6th fret of the D string.
