Hello. I have been learning to play guitar for about a year and finally decided to go to guitar tricks. I must admit that my progress is doing better since then. My question pertains more with my electric Ephiphone 335 but somewhat with my acoustic on which both I am learning on.

It seems that whenever I change between some chords, particularily when say for example I am playing half notes, that there is a noticeable change in pitch of the strings. This is more evident with some chords such as the open d or b minor for example. So for example I will downstrum for a half bar, then change and second strum for the last half. . As for my scales, going up is no problem as I am adding fingers to ones already placed down on the string until I change strings or when I descend the scales where I have no fingers already covering. It seems more evident with electric guitar . Because of thinner strings and amp? How can I get rid of this change of pitch sound? [br]Thanks
