I was doing OK going through the beginner section, learning my chords and stuff. I thought F major was a bit difficult, but I got there after an hour of trying.
Then I meet B Major. Whats up with that?? No human fingers could possibly make that shape. The guy on the video must be some alien guy, with long alien fingers!
Casting my mind back to guitarists I met way back, I remember an old hippy guy who did some kind of bar chord using the index finger and then another finger to press down three strings at once two frets over. I'm thinking that might have been his approach to B Major.
Would it be better for me to attempt it that way? If I try it the official way, my osteopath might as well plan his retirement, he'll be making enough.
