I just took this lesson and was like wow can i get by without learning this chord. i play mostly standing up, so before bed. i sat and tried to work thru it. i found it was a little easier and was like thats wierd right. so i stood up and adjusted my strap and low and behold. i can hit that chord like nobodies business, i still have to see if i can play past the 12th fret, but maybe that helps, also i can do it with my pinkie and both fingers on the 4th string. but i am not advanced far enough to do progressions yet, so i don't know if that would be a bad habit
