You know that this answer does not make sense? The "second" chord _is_ the "first position" variant. > In either position: why is the lower fis excluded? It fits nicely in the > chord, unless you're the 'lowest note must be root' kind of player... Uh, lowest note _must_ be root when strumming or it sounds awful. For the barre, I _would_ barr the fis in order to have the low dominant for finger-picking alternate basses. For the open chord, there is no finger left (assuming that we leave the thumb alone) for fingering the low fis, so the question does not even arise. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
