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!
I didnt like the other capo versions so I made my own. I really am not that great at
guitar, Im a vocalist so I wanted to make the easiest way I could
play and have it still sound good.
Oh by the way I don't know what these chords are called but they are labeled as such and
I play them as such.
