Hey Borofred, welcome to Chordie.
I tried Super Slinkeys on my old electro acoustic, Emily, in about 1990 and they were great for learning new and complex lead lines - soft, easy to play and bend - but useless for tone and volume.
For acoustic/electro acoustic I think the general consensus here is to go for coated acoustic strings and I think most people rate the Elixirs.
Zurf, if you got some of those bat stickers on your guitar neck you could market yourself as the "Dork Knight!"
(No offence intended, I think your one cool frood who knows where his towels at!)
Obviouly there's the B and F which have to be barred but why would you play for instance a barred C over an open C?
Hey Crevs.1972.
When you have the same chords rotating over and over a good thing is to change the inversion or the order in which the notes that make the chord are fretted and played.
In Queen's "Somebody to Love" I play it with all open chords apart from the "somebody, SOMEBODY, somebody, SOMEBODY," bit which all takes place over a G chord, I play the first G open the second barre on 10th.
It's the same chord but it changes things a little.
Another reason is positioning of main chord group. If I'm playing mainly 7th to 10th fret I'm not going to zoom all the way down to an open C.
Finally the song demands it. In "Sultans of Swing" you play Dmin both barre and open AND play barre C and barre F in two positions each (3rd fret & 1st fret - 8th fret)!!!
It's all good! The more ways you have of doing a thing the more musical tools you have at your disposal AND the easier it is to learn new/different ways.
I don't know the market over there, but I believe the prices equate the same regardless of exchange rate.
Bearing that in mind, there are Solid Top guitars (of unknown quality) for around £125. If you can cobble a little more together you will get more second-hand and new.
Post a pic of what you get!
Hey ezrine, welcome to Chordie!
I don't know about others but I need to see the context in which these chords occur. That is - what's the song, what tempo, is it an instrumental section or verse or chorus or middle 8.
With these things I have a better chance of answering what to do with the chords.
KEEP POSTING, erzine, and everyone else who has a question or comment serious or fun. We have all been beginners and we all need a hand up now and then; Chordie is the best place to come to get that hand.
If the Sticky doesn't help you, come back to us all. Someone can and will help!
Keep Playing!!!
There's one thing, like, you find, you know what I'm saying, that is, uhhh, a kind of truism, kind of, that is, like, that none of the great oraters, you know, do this....... kinda, like, sort of, you know what I'm saying.
AT THE END OF THE DAY......................... this one gets me geoaguiar.
This is the first forum I've ever had anything to do with.
The one thing we all have in common is that we are all brothers and sisters of the sixth string (or 4, 5, 8 or 12).
Recently I found I was chatting with one of my best M8's brothers in Oz without ever having met him!!! How good's that?
Also I found some psts from another guy from Bristol who (I think) has been out to our Monday night shindig a good few times!!! How good's that???
Where else can you find the song you're looking for AND chat to people from all over this big wide world who you've already got something in common with before you've communicated?
Hey Micky.
Wa 'bout Romeo and Juliet by Dire Straights?
The chords here (on Chordie) are different but I've always done it D, A and G.
Thanks Ken.
There is my round top, pneumatic, swivel stool - somewhere (probably sulking under my keyboard).
Have to see if I can fit it in!
Sumertime.
Me et Julio Down by the Schoolyard.
La Bamba/Twist and Shout.
La Mer.
Boys of Summer.
My favourite band is rubber!
If you look at the chord chart in the resources tab you will see under the "A" chords "Adim" (diminished) with first fret strings 2 and 4 fretted and 2nd fret strings 1 and 3 fretted.
I have also seen this same chord with the same position being marketed under the "C" and "F" banner.
Obviously it is a weird one where the root is chosen from the 4 notes depending on key but all other notes are the same.
How many chords are there like this?
You're more than welcome!
Wormster showed me a film of you yonks back and I thought I recognised you in a link in your post about easy recording methods.
Good to meet (?) you.
Sad to say I'm with you Micky.
I know what I'm supposed to feel, but when the one isn't there........................
Good on you all the mums who love their kids and good on you all the kids who appreciate those mums.
Thanks Russell!
The envelope pushing was really only that I had to work some of the chords out and Ian Anderson is known for his weird chord changes and as I said - I'm lazy.
The buzz was that I worked out the chords on Friday night so I could play along with the link in my first post and spent Saturday polishing the arrangement/performance when I could fit it into another busy day.
If I could afford one of these -
at £9,995.00 I wouldn'tspend my time doin' anything else 'cos I could afford to just play!
My practice conditions are usually very cramped and I can't put up a music stand. I'm sitting oblique on a small sofa with any music on said sofa next to me. Makes for achy practice sessions but if you want to do it, you do it!
Carenza's my guitar you understand, this is her
and if the idea of a date with her sounds strange then understand that I'm either busy with dogs, horses, campers, bed and breakfasters or I'm performing with Carenza ........................ or I'm busy recovering from the above. Don't think there's anything stranger going on than me playing ma guitar and loving the sound and the interplay (or is that interplay and sound - chicken/egg)
So setting time to practice and/or learn something new has to be something I can find time to fit it in. I did a post last Monday about the bank holiday and said I wanted to have a go at Heavy Horses but the time ran away with me and that night I was performing so it never got done.
Don't get me wrong I pick up Carenza throughout the week, but getting some special time in front of the computer and being able to make noise without disturbing anyone - that's rare.
Yesterday I had horses to feed, dogs to walk and other such stuff, but managed to sit in front of the screen with chordie open and Youtube on another tab playing said song. Here's the best audio version.

All was going well until I found the bit that begins "Bring a song for the evening" and I quickly realised that the chords given were spot on but for this missing section.
Lazy to the last, I searched and searched the web for the missing section to no avail, even looked into buying it - no-one carried it.
Bit me lip and reapplied myself to that section and found a couple of chords that reoccurred and got the feel more and more with each relooping.
When I came back from chompers, I got it right after a few tries. The missing section cracked.
Today I've been prettey tied up with duties, but in the odd 15 minutes here and there I've gone back to it to polish my arrangement. But it's the feeling at realising a song you've loved for lontime and had baulked at learning before has been cracked.
The Diem was Carped, a very rewarding time!
How do you tackle these "envelope pushers?"
How do you go about practicing with regard to set up and personal mood?
How do you feel and what do you do when you've cracked a song that's pushed you?
Do you like my guitar?
Oh, and I realised you were talking 'bout the electrocuted thing, .
Sorry Zurf, not a crit to you rather than a shout out to John.
Bryan Adams saying about getting his first real 6 string was that he played it 'til his fingers bled!
To start with just try making a barre across all strings but reinforce your index finger with your middle finger, move it up and down the fretboard strumming slowly to hear that each sring's note is true.
B shaped barres are easiest if you flatten the whole very final segment of your ring finger to cover the 3 strings on the same fret and - get this - you can still use your middle finger as a support! It requires practise but once you get the hang of it you can whip the changes from barre C - G and back and Sultans of Swing becomes a doddle!
Sorry sixstringrich, if you want to get good, you go through the pain as quickly and as thoroughly as possible.
Man, I remember riding lessons when I was a kid all that sitting trot for an hour to break in our muscles AND paying for it.
If you love it you do it. Bon Chance!
If oysterboy is who I think he is he's played at the Queen Vic' here a few times, nice Taylor, multi instrumentalist (pipes??) and well more than competent a musician and singer.
Check out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5WJ7ynVUhY and look forward to seeing you again in the Vic' soon John!
Some of us are not as resilliant as we used to be and can't afford to replace our expensive kit.
From an IT dunce:
Is it not possible to attach a Web-Cam and record into some Windows media program?
