OT: Question for guitar players...

[Bulldog Bruce]

When you strap on your guitar what chord do you immediately grab?

I was watching a guy put on his guitar and he first grabs a D. So I thought about it and realized I always finger a G.

 

[dawglawz]

open E power chord. Let it breathe...

Am. Why?

 

[DawgsOnTheWing]

I usually grab a D and finger pick into a G. But I full strum an E to check the tuning....

Grabbing D's and fingering G's
Sorry....it made laugh

I'm thinking about taking a break from my art stuff and learning guitar.

Typically a G. I dont know why... I guess I can hear if its out of tune more easily.

 

[DawgsGoneWild]

Same. G

G. So I can see if the B string is still out of tune. And it is. Always.

Always an open G. I think 90% of the songs I do are in G.

I play Smoke on the Water the way my friend in junior high showed me. I have no idea what chord or note that is.

Yep, the B always sounds out, even when it's in.

 

[hdogg]

A
I used to go G but realized A is better to figure out if it's really tuned or has intonation problems. G usually sounds fine even slightly out of tune. A does not.
Then I go Emaj7 to make it look like I know what I'm doing.

 

[M R DAWGS]

G

 

[Bulldog Bruce]

My G leads into Wish You Were Here.

It has been quite a while, but I used to make a G. I was in the habit of using my last three fingers.

So jealous that you guys can shred. I've picked up my Washburn so many times over the years and put it down in frustration giving up once again. Some day***

Go to ultimate guitar tabs and there is pretty much every song chords and tabs and has diagrams of everything. Has many easy versions and even links to a video of the song so you can hear it if you need to.

My main axe is a Gibson SG. Probably The legend of the Rock Gods. Then I have a Yamaha Pacifica......an incredible backup that I really can't tell the difference between it and a Fender Strat, except it's a fraction of the cost. Lastly, another Rock legend....my woodgrain Les Paul. Can't go wrong there either. If I ever could ever add another....this one intrigues me greatly and it's one of the best looking guitars I've ever seen...........
