Georg -> RE: Name that chord (Sep. 13 2007 13:11:18)

The most common chords you play as bar chords are the "A" or the "E" chord which you move up to another fret, while your index finger functions like a capo. So if the chord reminds you of an A-major or a-minor, you just have to get to know which note you are playing on your A string. If it reminds you of an E-chord type, the E-string is the one you have to look at. The notes on your E-string from 0 - 12 are: E F Fis G Gis A Ais B (I call it H, but Ricardo doesn't like it[:D]) C Cis D Dis E For the A-string: A Ais B C Cis D Dis E F Fis G Gis A So if the chord reminds you of an a-minor, and you are pressing the A-string at the 5th fret, it's most likely a d-minor. I hope this helps. Forgot to say that flamenco chords aren't always easy to identify. There must be a thread where some members collected every possible and impossible chord they could think of. Somewhere I must have a sheet, where this is shown, if you like it or anybody else, I can scan it and send it to you.
