¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
**standard tuning**
**(1+ 2+ 3+ 4+) are counts to help with strumming patterns in a few places
** the A#/F according to a chord finder is really B?add11/F but I can't use/link the ? notation on this
editor so here is the tab for the chord I play as well as variations that might sound better to you.
I personally like just having to move my two fingers on the 3rd fret when changing quick from the F chord.

**many don't use the B?/F and just keep strumming on F but I like mixing it up a bit to break the monotony
