Tfw you hit the A string while playing the D chord ond guitar
Sounds good tho
>wanting twangy ass high strings with no bass
You do realize A is literally the fifth
>guitarists don't know that A is the 5th in a D major triad
>tfw somehow get the skin between my middle and ring finger sliced into by the high E string
Just turn it in to a Ic=>V=>I progression you pleb
honestly lol
Finger picking it when you wanted the D is kinda annoying though. I guess I should learn to finger pick properly.
>he doesn't play drop D
>not always playing inversions
Pleb
>plays in drop d
mute it with the thumb finger
but generally, the lowest note in a chord is supossed to be the tonic
drop D
i'm writing my thesis paper on how guitar players are dumb motherfuckers who couldn't grasp music theory if it got shot up their butt with a bicycle pump, mind if I get your name and e-mail address and use you as a citation?
let me know asap thanks.
Using inversions is good for smooth melodic lines and using root position is good for emphasizing a chord.
...
Trying to play fast riffs with a thin pick is maddening, I think I'll glue two picks together
>What are fifths
Hey, you are a meanie. Instead of mocking someone you could try and educate them by telling them why they are wrong. I perfectly know that A is the fifth of D, but i've always heard that the lowest note in a chord should be the tonic, except when playing inversions.
why do you call it the thumb finger? it's called a thumb
>but i've always heard that the lowest note in a chord should be the tonic, except when playing inversions.
you kind of answered your own question. there's no reason that a chord has to begin on its tonic, it just depends on how you're using it.
I was making fun of you because guitar players only ever play power chords and probably came up with that stupid "the lowest note in a chord should be the tonic" idea
to differentiate from the thumb toe obviously
>tfw you bust your last drumhead
Do yourself a favour and learn what inversions are.
oh, okay, we cool
You didn't read what i posted after that, i know what an inversion is
>Hey, you are a meanie. Instead of mocking someone you could try and educate them by telling them why they are wrong. I perfectly know that A is the fifth of D, but i've always heard that the lowest note in a chord should be the tonic, except when playing inversions.
guys...invert my dick into your mouth
The greatest song of all time makes heavy use of inverted chords so it's obviously not a bad thing.
>not replacing your high strings with banjo strings for extra highness and twangyness
>he doesn't tune 2 whole steps down
>>plays in drop d
Radiohead's got a handful of songs in drop d my guy
>implying you want to play a second inversion chord unless you are at a cadential moment
How would that change anything to do with an open D chord or the A string
>yfw you don't play know how to play a guitar
why don't you shut your fucking face, power chords are the pinnacle of western musical achievement. Im playing a power chord right now just to spite you
it's just a prank, my dude
I had a buddy who played his drums way too fucking hard and he ended up cracking his hi-hats and basically his whole kit
less is more
only guitarists
There would be a D below the A, meaning that the lowest note in the chord would be the tonic and no one's babby ears would get upset.

You never need to doubt it

I'll make you so sure about it
I'm really looking forward to all the people that want to suck brian wilson's grandpa dick throwing tantrums when he inevitably shits himself and dies on stage next year
Oh I didn't think about that. Guess it's cause I don't use drop tunings
don't get caught up on these little things
yes you should work to clean it up but if you keep getting hung up on this kind of shit you're not gonna go anywhere
you need to strike a balance, don't be an autist who plays perfectly but can't do anything interesting but don't be a lunk who has cool ideas but plays like shit
you're the one throwing a tantrum friend
i hope it at least makes you feel better
it does thanks
knowing that overrated hack is in the cold earth will make me feel just swell
