    you play a new chord every first beat. So if I were to start playing the exercise now, I would play the C chord on the first beat and let it ring out for the other three beats, then on the next beat I would play the D chord and let that ring out, and so on. Does this make sense? If not, try to be very specific as to what you are confused about. You should also be familiar with tabs and how to downstroke to play this exercise.

    Ah yes it’s actually pretty simple. Have a metronome handy for this and set it to 60 beats per minute. For the exercise you just have to play each chord for 4 beats. Count the beats if you have to – “one, two, three, four, one, two, three, four,…” etc. and play one chord for the duration of four beats, then switch the chord and play that for four beats.

    On the website, I’m confused as to how to play exercise 1 in chords I

  • smpl90s 11 years ago

    Yeah the audio is terrible. At 4:24 I play 4th finger 4th fret E string, 2nd finger 2nd fret E string, 1st finger 1st fret E string, 4th finger 4th fret B string, 2nd finger 2nd fret B string. The notes in the same order are G#, F#, F, D#, C#. 1st finger = index, 2nd finger = middle, etc. High E string the the string closest to the ground (or highest-sounding string), B string is the string second closest from the ground.

    i’m sorry, but I did not understand anything at all. Which fingers did you put on what frets on what notes?
