Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Note: I wrote D9sus4 (xx0553) in choruses because the piano plays the E.
(The other guitarist plays 10 x 10 9 8 x, but that's really high up the neck.)
but you can still play D7sus4 (xx0213) like he does in performances.
Gadd9/B - x20233. Electric plays Bm7 shape (x20232).
Final G5 is 3x0033.
