Yep, that's why I put it off for a year! But it's all I practiced every time I picked up my guitar for about these last 2 weeks. Getting it down in my head and knowing the chords...easy...making my fingers do it, well, yeah. I thought I might never get that passage:

E---4--7/12--11-11h12p11--9--9h11p9---7-------------------|
B---5---------------------------------------10--7-----------|
G---4------------9-------------8-------------------8--------|
D------------------------------7-----------------------9-----|
A----------------9-------------------------------------------|
E---0--------------------------7-----------------------------|

:eek: Barring the 7th chord and stretching for a hammer/pull on 11? Who thinks like that? Just further evidence of why Tarrega is considered the "Father" of modern classical guitar. I read he was just as good on piano as well, thus explaining some of his unorthodox chord voicings.
