I'm brand new to guitar tricks. I've begun the fundamentals 1 training and am on the last part where we are learning chords. I need some assistance. The A major chord seems impossible to me. If I can get all my fingers in the 2nd fret, I struggle with one or two of the strings being muted either b/c my top finger is too close to the 1st fret bar or my 3rd finger is too close to the 2nd fret. I notice on Chris's video that he is pretty close to both fret bars but his guitar sounds right. Is it something I am doing wrong? I have arched my fingers up to make sure I am only touching that specifi string, but still, I either get that weird vibrating string sound or it just sounds muted. It's driving me crazy!. Also, could it be my guitar? It's just a $100 acoustic guitar, is this less of a problem with different guitars?
Any advice would be appreciated!
