I wonder why you have to mute the 6th string when you play open string on 1st string. You said the 6th string is not part of the chord but it is an E so could well be part of the chord, like the open first string which is also an E . Thank you for the video .
Hi,that's a good question! Well the chord is C major-therefore the triad is CEG...So the bass which is leading in every chord must be C....it's OK if we have E open 1st string,but not in the bass (hope that makes sence) But...if you are not benigger player and want to include 6th string as well in the chord -press 6th string with yout 3rd finger ans 5th string with your 4th finger on 3rd fret-sounds great..... We are playing G on third fret like that,but it sounds good because it's 5th tone in the triad....long explanation ;)
@@Key-2Guitar Thank you so much for your explanation and of course it makes sence. I am too much of an engineer instead of musician so never thought about the order in the chord. Thanks again for your brilliant answer 🎼 /Christer
