Hi Roger
Nice to see your back again after your upseting time.
Had a good listen to your latest song nice use of the picking adds a bit more to song.
I do like your voice the more I hear it.
Well done
Ark

temus thanks for the explaination.
I believe that's a D with added F# giving base note to the Dmajor chord.
nice chord I use it alot my using my thumb as you say.
works well
Ark

UYK
My point exactly F# no D barred or as your the "Cheated" easy version works quite well. smile

Hi temuss99 and Hello
Nice song interesting chord progression. I think some may struggle with the F#/D?
Anyway the song sounds good just using the barred F# strummed or picked.
No criticism intended just an observation.

I've heard this one at at string change thing before maybe its right maybe its wrong.
I've changed all the strings at one go many times on different guitars and I can't say I've had any problems with action or such afterwards.
The difference in tone or ring on a new set of strings is something not to be missed it sometimes transforms the guitar.

Topdown I like Justine Sandercoe the guy a great guitarist, tutor and a good song writer.
But after years of changing strings by my DIY method I decided to follow Justine's instructions on his utube vid as used by a real pro.
and it took me 3 times as long and I broke the high e while tightening. lol
I guess I'm not cut out to be pro.

All what you put in the title should be in the body of the post before your song. With song in square brackets []

the brackets on {/song} should be [/song]     don't press the shift key!
I think thats' all

If the song from the heart as always........I hope it all works out for you?
Well done

Ark

I don't know what happened to my prediction but it said I died in 2003.  I choose pessimistic so but even so.
I wondered why people kept ignoring me now I know.
