Hey Lee, sorry for the extremely late reply. I don’t know how this question got away from me. I’m not exactly sure I understand your question. Do you mean your fingers move higher up the fret board, towards the next fret?

So great to have you here, Lynann! I hope you find success through the course, and let us know how your progress comes along!

That’s awesome, Russell! I’m so glad you didn’t give up and never play. This is your time. You can do it! Keep us posted with your progress.

Welcome Lee. Glad to have you in the SG family! Glad to hear you are enjoying it so far. Keep us posted with your progress!

Welcome Vivian! So glad to have you here!

It will probably help you wrap your mind…Read More

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.

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
