wonderful – you know sometimes when noodling around you discover melodies of favorite songs? the first three chords are used in part of the Grateful Dead song “Dark Star”
-these are a lot of fun!
There is one particular song where you find these chord variations – “Give a little bit” from Supertramp.
Is this suppose to transpose to other keys Brian? I tried it in the key of G and if I got it right, some of them don’t sound very good (ie, 4th fret or 6th fret 4&2 strings). Thanks.
Hey Arnold – this is something that’s unique to A – unique because of the open strings.
Awesome Bryan. When you just pluck the D and B strings as you move around it sounds like every mariachi song you’ve ever heard. Very cool.
