Hiya all
ive only had a guitar a week so im dumb lol anyway up to now its going great but im trying to learn Angie by rolling Stones the easy simple one. I seem to be doing ok exept for F Major every time i come to this chord it sounds muted and vibraty if you know what I mean. I place my index finger on the first two strings middle finger on the 3rd string and ring finger on the 4th string but every time is sounds crap if i press harder or move my fingers closer to the fret another string is muted and its a visious circle. anybody got any hints ive tried diffrent position for my thumb to get more levarage any tricks to make it easier.
I know im a pain as its mentioned how to play the F Major in the tutorials but i just cant seem to get it. got all the others ok A Minor, E7, G Major, C Major, E minor i need for the song but that damm F major lol
any help will be appriciated.
I am a high bandwidth subsciber in case you thing im being cheaky lol
tried both ways to play it but both sound vibraty or muted if you know what i mean im a total novice.
